"I have fought a good fight, I finished the course I have kept the faith, henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness". (II Timothy 4:7-8)
Levio Orlando Boschain, 80, of Coal City, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, October 5, 2011 in the Beckley VA Hospital following a long illness.

He was a member of the Coal City Freewill Baptist Church and also attended the Lillybrook Freewill Baptist Church for 44 years; this was a big part of his life. Over the years Levio was a Deacon, Men's Bible Teacher, Teen Teacher, and Choir and Youth Director; he still enjoyed teaching when he was able.

He is survived by three brothers, Sergio Boschain of Coal City, Joe Grahonya and wife, Shirley of Oreland Park, Ill, and Jimmy Grahonya and wife, Brenda of Coal City; a sister, Mille (Boschain) Cooper and husband, Charles of Oak Lawn, Ill.
Services will be 11:00AM Saturday, October 8, 2011 at the Coal City Freewill Baptist Church, Coal City with Rev. Charlie Brown officiating. Following the services Levio will be laid to rest at Sunset Memorial Park, Beckley.
