Rodeo star Spencer Wright and his wife Kallie Wright are weathering a tragedy.
Days after their 3-year-old son Levi Wright passed away from injuries sustained during a toy tractor accident, the couple are “trying to navigate what life is going to look like” following their devastating loss, according to a close family friend.
“They are very adamant about wanting to make sure that his name doesn’t die,” Mindy Sue Clark told People in an interview published June 5, “and that they can continue to carry things forward.”
She said the family is considering starting a charitable foundation to continue Levi’s legacy “once the dust settles as much as it can for losing a child.”
“The reach that our little guy has had, I can’t even put it into words,” remarked Mindy, who grew up barrel racing with Levi’s mom. “I have zero words for every day when we wake up and people are messaging us from New Zealand and Australia and then our friends in Uganda. It’s crazy.”
Noting how Levi’s story has “made such an impact on millions of people,” she continued. “It literally has been a movement.”
