Obituary of Levi Jim Allphin

Levi Jim Allphin, 53, of Rathdrum, Idaho went to be with his Lord on May 2, 2017.  Levi was born in Ellensburg, Washington on July 5, 1963 to Tiny and Bev Allphin.  He grew up in Kittitas, attending Kittitas High School and Ellensburg High School, graduating in 1982.  He attended and completed his studies at Perry Technical Institute.  He was employed as an Instrumentation Technician/Electrician at Rathdrum Power LLC for the past 17 years.  While married to Karye Moore, Levi was blessed with 3 daughters Sidney, Taylor, and Danielle.  He later reunited with a friend from his past, Connie Doering, who he spent 10 years with.

Levi enjoyed spending time with his two grandsons and was looking forward to the birth of two more grandchildren this summer.  He especially found joy in spending his weekends with his grandson Tucker.  Levi was dedicated to his physical fitness and biblical studies, and he attended North Country Chapel.  He also enjoyed the outdoors, hunting and fishing.
