Levon Hucks Sr., a charismatic father and son, was the third born of ten children to Sadie and Harry Hucks on December 16, 1940. On April 4, 2023, he transitioned to a new life after struggling with Alzheimer's Disease for the past 3 years. He battled the disease with the most amazing grace, bravery, and strength. He lived every day with positivity and determination not to let the disease keep him from doing the things he loved. Levon was surrounded by loving friends and family throughout his final days. He was 82 years old and a native of Conway, SC. Levon was a successful businessman, auto broker, and co-owner of Hucks Brothers Auto Sales, with his brother, the late Donnie Hucks, by his side. Most of the "Hucks Brothers” enjoyed working together in the car sales business, including the late Tommy Hucks, the late Allen Hucks, and surviving brother Randy Hucks. Later, Levon branched out and became owner of Hucks Auto Sales, a pre-owned car dealership, car repair and car wash in Conway, SC. He had a passion for helping people and he was able to do that in the automotive field with his magnetic personality. Levon was preceded in death by his brother Carl Hucks and is survived by his brother Henry Hucks and his three sisters: Betty Smith, Jeanwood Todd, and Doris Hucks. Early in life, he met and fell in love with Peggy Goff, and they soon married and had three children: Levon Hucks, Jr., Deborah Hucks Hudson, and the late Anthony Wayne Hucks. Levon worked hard to make sure they were taken care of and felt loved every day. They remember their father as a kind and compassionate man with a keen sense of humor and good work ethics. Levon had a love for anything related to the outdoors. He enjoyed boating, fishing, collecting cars, motorcycling, go-cart racing, and his favorite pastime, spending a day on the banks of the beautiful Waccamaw River. He also enjoyed and was an active member of the Omar Shriners, a brotherhood of men committed to family, providing care for children and families in need. He was a Shriner and a member of the Masonic Order, adhering to the principles of Freemasonry. Freemasonry is the oldest, largest, and most widely known fraternal organization in the world. He also served as a “Pedaler" in the Conway, SC Omar Shriners. Levon will be dearly missed by his family, friends, and community. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him, and his spirit will continue to inspire generations to come. His family wishes to extend a special thanks to the dedicated staff of Embrace Hospice House in Myrtle Beach, SC.
