2026 Philadelphia Heart Walk
Eckell Sparks
In Loving Memory of Sam Levin – Steps4Sam
Sam Levin (A/K/A Sampants and Super Sam) loved fast cars, late nights at the gym and never-ending sushi. Born with a congenital heart defect, Sam lived life with an incredible zest—fierce in his passions, kind in his soul and always quick with a smile or a snappy joke to make others feel better no matter how he was feeling. Though complications from this heart condition took him from us way too early, his spirit and zest for life carries on.
On October 24th, Sam’s father (Jay), his family and his teammates at Eckell Sparks are walking in Sam’s memory at the American Heart Association's Walk for the Heart in Philadelphia. It's more than just a walk—it's a tribute to Sam’s unstoppable spirit and a chance to help others born with heart defects live longer and more fuller lives.
Join us as we honor Sam and carry his heart forward, one step at a time. â¤
