Veteran Lobbyist Bob Levy Dies

TALLAHASSEE, Fla.   "Levites," a cadre of lobbyists, legislators and aides who credit veteran lobbyist Robert M. Levy for his or her entrance in to the cutthroat world of Florida politics, are mourning losing their mentor, who died Tuesday in Tallahassee after a lengthy grapple with salivary gland cancer.

Levy, who was 67, was one among a handful of remaining old fashioned lobbyists who, until his death, spent decades representing numerous Miami Dade County interests.

Levy was also a decorated war veteran who earned three Purple Hearts for his service in Vietnam, for which he also was awarded a Silver Star and also the Vietnam Cross of Gallantry, according to his close associate Jose Diaz.

"What can I say? Bob would have been a father to so many. There are so many people doing work in this process that individuals call 'Levites,' " Diaz said in the telephone interview Tuesday evening.

Levy's list of protges includes state Rep. Holly Raschein, R Key Largo, state Sen. Dwight Bullard, D Miami, and former state Rep. Planas.

"There's a real web of men and women in the political method that got their originate from Robert M. Levy and Associates. That's Bob's legacy. Bob was always about raising the small people, and giving everybody the opportunity," said Diaz, who worked for Levy for 27 years.

Levy battled with salivary gland cancer, which doctors believed was related to exposure to Agent Orange throughout the Vietnam War, for over a decade, Diaz said.

The soft spoken Levy, who sported a Van Dyke, was too Ray Ban sunglasses outlet ill revisit his Miami home as soon as the legislative session resulted in March, in accordance with Diaz, who promises to take over Levy's lobbying practice.

"He was a man of his word. The person was a man of integrity. We've had several deals in the past. We've didn't have a written agreement, and unfortunately within our business it's not the case anymore," said veteran lobbyist Ron Book, who is also operating out of Miami Dade County. "His favorite line was, 'Call Ron Book. If you realize you can't afford him, call me for the blue light special.' "

Levy was "an amazing part of the political process," fellow lobbyist Dave Ericks said.

"He was the most unique those who only come along a few times in your lifetime," Ericks said.

Levy's crowning achievement after a lot more than three decades like a lobbyist may have come shortly before cheap Ray Ban Wayfarer his death.

After a lot more than 25 years, lawmakers this session approved an offer that would allow advanced rn practitioners and physician assistants to prescribe controlled substances. The proposal is awaiting action from Gov. Rick Scott.

Levy is survived by his sister, Ricci Levy, and brother in law, Richard Levy. Levy's body will probably be transported to Philadelphia, where his family owns the oldest Jewish cemetery in continuous existence, as outlined by Diaz.

"When you had been a Levite, he gave you the shirt off his back. He would be a brother in my opinion," Diaz said.

Levy's war experience could possibly have primed him for that cutthroat arena of Tallahassee politics. As a possible 18 year old fighting inside the Vietnam War, Levy was among 13 guys who survived what became known as the battle on "Hill 875."

"He fought he to his death, killed he with his own hands having a bayonet. There aren't countless men like that around currently," Diaz said.
