"Wow. Here we are 11 years later and I had no idea this existed. Or maybe I did in the beginning but never posted because I couldn't deal. You were one of my best friends and the first friend I've lost. Sadly we have lost many more. Your death was like nothing I have ever experienced. My life changed so much. We think of you often, talk about you so much, listen to the devil went down to Georgia and always take shots of jack Daniels for you on your birthday and anniversary of your death. No matter how much we don't want that shot we do it ;) then we end up having the greatest night ever!! Most of our group of friends have kids and busy lives so it's hard to get together but we always have and always will continue to get together for you on those dates and even if we can't be in person we do group phone calls and those are always a good time too!! You, your love and the amazing person you were keep us all together. Thank you for that. I was truly blown away and have no words to describe the feelings I felt when reading others posts about you over the years. Especially the ones who knew you and we're with you on April 8th,2004. I'm so happy that so many people got to see how amazing of a person you were. I wanted my kids to know how amazing you were too but that's not the case. I tell my oldest about you all the time and will do the same when my little guy is old enough to understand. I got a tattoo for you a couple years after you passed away so I can always have you with me. I know you are watching down on us and are laughing and crying right along with us. Just know that my family and I know many of our friends have spent today and the days leading up to this memorial day thinking of and talking about you and the amazing hero you are. I love you so much, please continue to watch over us. God bless all our fallen heros."
Kalee Garberg of Cloquet, MN

"Well here we are. I don't talk about that day, as I seen it all go down. I luv you brother..I'm sorry. I named my son after you. Aaron angel Pixler. Thank you for the good times. War is hell. We were kids. The reality hit home when you died. I miss you. As you stand guard at heavens gate in your dress blues just hold me a spot in heaven."

"Hey Marine,
Happy 239th, Thank you old friend for being the example that you are of a Faithful Marine. 10 years have passed and feels like just yesterday we were young kids going on an adventure. We never stopped to think that it was war. Your name and face popped into my head the moment I woke up today so Im writing you this letter to remind you that its been ten years and to save me a seat in heaven and know that Ill be having a cold one for you and for all the Marine and heroes. We all miss you and If you could see on Facebook how many people miss you and the impact your life had on our lives. Its true you know--what they say--You never really leave until the last person who knows your name passes. For you I guess that means a few hundred years but dont be bragging about it. I miss you bro, you are the man, the myth, the legend. God bless you and your family. its been 10 years so it wont be long till I get back home. Semper Fi."

"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Angell,

From all of Levi's brothers and sisters in CSSC-111, I wanted to take a moment and pay our respects to commemorate the 10th anniversary of his sacrifice. He lives on in all of our hearts, and will never be forgotten."
Sam Meites of Santa Monica, CA

"Dear Angell,
This is Lance Corporal Davis of the Coon Platoon. Though that day we left the airport in smiles of thinking we were fortunate to enjoy a day away from the camp, we found out the hard way that it was not. All I have in your memory is a smile we all shared while eating burgers. I'll never forget that day. We as Marines share a bond and brotherhood that no one could imagine. You will always be my brother Angell... You will always live on through me and the rest of the brothers... Much love Levi, much love... Semper Fi... Lance Corporal G.A."
Lance Corporal Davis of Butler, GA

"I am so sorry about Lance cpl Angell. I have a bracelt that I received several years ago. It has his name and date and where he is from. I didnt know how you would feel knowing i have this bracelet. I wondered if your family would like to have it. I have kept it for many years on top of my TV with a picture of my Dad who was in the airforce and on Sunday I thought about him and his family. If you would like to contact me about the bracelt please feel free to do so. I only have a computer at work (mon-thur). I will give you my email just in case. ichilleri@tsfm.cc Again I am so sorry about what happened. with love and respect Irma"

"To Angell family,

On November 10th 2002, I had a heart surgery at Balboa Naval Hospital. My unit had orders to deploy to Iraq.
Due to my surgery, didn't get to go. I stayed behind and that's when I met your son. I remember Levi as a big teddy bear. Always smiling and very respectful. July of 2003, I deployed with him with Special Marine Air Ground Task Force. I beg the Dr. to clear me so I can deploy. When we got to Kuwait, I slept next to him and Olive. Every morning I woke up I see him smiling. I said to myself " What the heck is he smiling at, its hot as heck here". I wish I could have known him longer and see that TEDDY BEAR smile again. Now I realize why he smiled all the time. He was doing something he love and he enjoyed life. I have been always an angry person because they way I grew up. But after having a heart surgery at the age of 21 and getting blown up in Iraq, I'm still alive. I cant be like Levi but now I try to live my life the way he saw his. I want to thank yall for giving me the opportunity and the honor to serve with your son. I still think about him everyday. I have seen the other post and they mention about stickers of him. How would I be able to get one of those? you can contact me at facebook/warren bruce nolasco speer or 254-722-8264.

Thank you!!!!"

"I never met Lance CPL Angell; however, I have worn a bracelet (Hero Bracelet) with his name and in his honor since the summer of 2004 when I was also in Iraq. For the past 5+ years, I do not get dressed without donning the bracelet with his name. He and his family are and always will be in my thoughts and prayers. I wear the bracelet to remember his service as well as his and his family's sacrifices. God bless."

"Lcpl Angell,
Hey brother, "Doc" Lawson here. I think of you often and pay tribute to you all the time. I've always had the notion that I could save the world if given the chance, but on that day, at that time, I was elsewhere with another convoy. If only I could have been in multiple places at the same time. But everyone knows that there truly wasn't anthing anyone could do on that day. I am just so thankful for being given the opportunity to serve with you and the rest of CSSC 111. Truly an honor, that has never been forgotten. I do miss you and thank you for giving me the privilege of calling you friend."

"To the family of a great marine and friend:

Sgt. Garcia of Hemet, CA

"Dearest Angell,
I can remember the day before your last convoy. You, me, Garrett, Olive, and a handful of other Marines were just 1 click away, dropping off some chow to the Marines down the road. Do you remember we found those orange "180 Energy Drinks", like 3 cases, hahaha. Man I remember, we handed prob 2 cases out and kept the rest, laughing the whole time. And I remember when we first arrived to Fallujah, getting our named trailers (thanks army) and room mates. You and me bullshitted about something, but we had a blast, talking about whatever it was. Oh yes, and that night of duty you had. You got into trouble for something, and you threw a fit and one of the Sgt's had to go talk to you. Hahahaha, man you were a fun guy to be around. Thats all I can remember, is smiles and laughing.
... and then I remember that day... the day Zappe came into the trailer, crying, and when I saw him, I knew we lost a Marine. So many names ran threw my mind... this person, that person, maybe him, maybe her.... and Zappe said "it was LCpl Angell, in his LVS with Taylor as A-Driver". My head felt like it just filled up with hot water, so much pressure it hurt. I couldnt believe it. But your a Hero to us, and an inspiration to all Marines, soldiers, sailors, airmen, civi's, to everyone. I have thought about you countless times Angell, and everytime I do now, I smile instead of frown, because even though Marines only thought of me as a * bird, good for nothing, I am a Marine, who happily went, and would of taken a bullet for anyone (even you Gunny Macias), BUT IT WASNT ME, IT WAS YOU, AND YOU ARE MY HERO. Much love forever Angell, ill cry a tear of blood on your day forever. Semper Fi."
Tester, Michael L. - CSSC 111 of Oakland, Ca. (Missing the USMC)

"Hey Levi I have thought about you often lately. I remember that day like it was yesterday and it was fours years ago. I remember every little detail. I wish I could have gotten to know you a little better then I did. I still talk to Brandon Olive often, and we sometimes talk about you. I miss you very much. I will never forget you. I see your face every time I close my eyes. Rest in Peace my friend. OORRAAHH!!!!"

J.Hammond of Springfield,vt USA

"LCpl Angell, I still remember that day vividly. I relive it everytime i go to sleep. I often ask myself if there was anything that we could of done different but i know there wasn't. I have known of this page for a while but it has taken a while to build up enough courage to write something down. I just want you and your family to know that the Marines of the Quick Reaction Force and of the convoy did everything we could. I couldn't of asked for anything better from my guys. I miss you and love you brother.
SEMPER FI"
Sgt Trochesset of Santa Fe, Tx

"Dear Angell Family,

I has been three and half years since I visited you at your home in Cloquet, and I still think of you and Levi often. I have proudly displayed the memorial sticker for Levi on my car window since the day you gave it to me. Since then, it has travelled to at least 10 states and many, many cities. I have no doubt that thousands of Americans have seen it in passing, and wondered about this brave stranger, who sacrificed his life doing the hard work his country asked of him.

All my best to your family."
Sam Meites of Santa Monica, CA

"April 8, 2008
Dear LCpl Levi Angell,

It has been four years since that horrible day in 2004. I regret not getting to know you better, but took comfort in your memorial service and how your Marine buddies mentioned your Christian faith. This gave us all hope as we mourned your passing. As a kid I remember during Memorial day parades parents and family members trying to explain to me how our freedom was fought for and how veterans suffer greatly and many had given all to give us our freedom, and I always respected that. Yet knowing you and knowing how you were cut down in your youth really makes the cost of freedom much more meaningful and painful.

I marvel how after being hit you were able to safely pull your 22-ton LVS truck over safely, keeping your assistant driver from being harmed. I marvel how your fellow Marines performed admirably during and after the ambush, repelling the enemy, recovering you and your assistant driver from the ambush zone, administering first aide and rushing you back to camp and to the surgical company. I still marvel about all the feats the Marines of CSSC-111 performed. How they endured, how they loved and love you like a brother, and miss you like a brother. How the Marines while still mourning your loss endured other convoy ambushes, and kept completing mission after mission, your memory indelibly etched on the hearts of all your comrades. We struggled with the senseless evil of your death, how you had nothing but good will toward the Iraqi people in your heart, how you were there giving everything, and some evil terrorist unwilling to yield any power to the common good or the citizens of Iraq of one new united nation of Iraq murdered you. It was tough not to be consumed with hate, though we did and do hate those who target those whose goal is only a nation in which the rights of all Iraqi's is protected. Truly our enemies, the radical insurgents, are the greatest enemy of freedom.

I only hope that the good people of Iraq will prosper, that more and more Iraqi soldiers will stand up honorably and build up from where you and others have given so dearly. That the tyrants, the extremists, those who are unwilling to respect the rights of the minority, those who hate liberty and freedom and desire to enslave others with their own convictions will be defeated. I hope you remember the smiling Iraqi children, and more importantly I hope the Iraqi children never forget you, that they will grow up to value liberty and to understand what it cost in terms of honorable Iraqi soldiers and Friendly U.S. soldiers and Marines. I pray eventually freedom and liberty will prosper in Iraq and spread through the world. Some people at home have doubted the value of freedom and liberty, freedom of thought, said that we are doing no different than the Taliban, or Wahabists, that we are forcing our "Western" ideas on them, not even understanding the basic meaning of Freedom and Liberty. Hopefully the appeal of Liberty and Justice for all will not be taken for granted by those who have enjoyed it, and rejected by those who would rather impose their beliefs on everyone else.

We will never forget you and we were all deeply touched by your service and sacrifice.

To the family and friends of Levi just know that we remember with you and we will never forget Levi, and will never take our freedoms for granted knowing this great friend died defending our freedoms and defending those in Iraq who were unable to defend themselves.


Rest in Peace Marine,

The Fort Snelling Memorial Chapel Foundation will be honoring your loved one at the non-denominational Memorial Day Sunday worship service at 11:00 a.m. on 29 May. We will remember the casualties of the Global War on Terrorism from Minnesota … and the neighboring states of Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin. Outside of the historic Fort Snelling Veterans Memorial Chapel will be a “Memorial Garden” filled with white crosses bearing the names of the war dead … including your loved one.

I would like to extend to your family an invitation to honor us with your presence at worship as we pay tribute to the sacrifice made by your service member and family. Our pastor, U.S. Army Chaplain, LTC Kenneth L. Beale, Jr. will preach a message entitled “Remembering Our Freedom.” A former Soldier and country music songwriter and performer “Rockie” will pay a special musical tribute. At the conclusion of the worship hour, all of the congregation will be invited to silently pay their respects at the garden and place poppies at each of the crosses. An honor guard squad will be on hand to fire vollies as the US flag is lowered to half-staff and Taps is played.

As this Christian worship service has traditionally been well attended, we would be happy to reserve seating for you and yours. To do so, kindly call (612/970-7866) and leave a voice message indicating your veterans’ name and the number of persons attending.
