It is with a heavy heart that we share that Jeffrey Levy died on Monday, September 30th 2024.
Sharing this message from the Washington Regional Alcohol Program, where Jeff Served on the Board.
“Jeff, a victim of drunk driving having lost his son in 1997 in an impaired driving crash in Virginia, was a most active member of not only WRAP’s voluntary leadership but also that of both MADD National’s (and local’s) as well as Virginia College Parents which he founded. In 2004, Jeff’s “admirable work in the region’s youth communities to combat underage drinking and drunk driving” was recognized by WRAP when he received the organization’s Youth Leadership Award.
That same year, Jeff was also named as the recipient of MADD-National’s prestigious Jean Moorhead Duffy Award – an honor presented for accomplishments in promoting the passage of key underage drinking and or drunk driving countermeasures in a state. The MADD award specifically referenced his spearheading of Virginia’s then recent passage of what has been hailed as some of the nation’s toughest drunken driving laws.
On a personal note, Jeff, a retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, was the consummate fighter whose imprint in the prevention community via his well-known and admired community service rightfully loomed large. He will be sorely missed.”
Our condolences to, and prayers for, Jeff’s family.
