A young West Australian who captured the hearts of people across the nation has tragically lost his life following a gruelling battle with cancer. Levi Tracy, 19, peacefully passed away on Tuesday morning alongside his family at Fiona Stanley Hospital. Levi was first diagnosed with non-Hodgkins T-Cell Lymphoma when he was just seven years old and underwent two and a half years of chemotherapy which put him into remission.

Tragically, five days later, Levi’s father shared the devastating update that his son had passed. “This day was never meant to arrive,” the emotional post began. “This morning at 9:15am our brave warrior, our Mighty Fighting Tiger gained his wings. Levi passed away peacefully this morning with Nikki and Nikita and myself by his side. “His lungs were no longer able to cope and his blood pressure dropped to unsupportable levels. In the end his heart just simply stopped.
