Jeffrey Daniel Levato

Jeffrey D. Levato, 49, of the Lake Geneva area passed away unexpectedly on Friday September 20th, 2024.

Jeffrey was born on August 31, 1975, to Francesco Levato Sr. and Francine Giuffre in Melrose Park, Illinois. Jeffrey was graduated from Addison Trail High School in 1993 and then continued to earn his bachelor’s degree from N.I.U.

Jeffrey was self-proclaimed “Wilderness Man” due to his love of the outdoors.  He loved being in his garden behind his house, floating in his canoe and letting the water take him wherever it wanted to, or back packing through the woods to spending time with his boys Luke and Phillip.  Beyond the love for his boys Jeffrey would tell you that his heart and soul was bound to the Geneva Lake and the path that surrounded it.

Jeffrey is survived by his two sons, Luke and Phillip.  His mother, Francine, two brothers: Francesco (Laura Skokan) Levato Jr. and Joseph (Rebecca) Levato: and one niece; Bella Mia all survive Jeffrey.

There will be a gathering of friends and family to celebrate Jeffrey's life on Saturday October 5th, 2024 from 12:00pm till 2:00pm in the main chapel of Derrick Funeral Home.
