Steven Legay Powhatan Virginia Death, 15-year-old Kayaker died from a tragic accident; Steven Legay was a passionate and enthusiastic kayaker, always eager to learn and grow in the sport. His energy and dedication were truly inspiring to all who knew him. I am immensely grateful for the time we spent together this past week, sharing epic pizzas at Moonlight, discussing our lives, and talking about how to advance in kayaking with the support of sponsors.
Our conversations were filled with dreams and aspirations, and it was clear that Steven had a bright future ahead of him. The moments we spent paddling together, from the Russell Fork to various other locations, will forever be cherished memories. His zest for life and kayaking made every trip memorable and meaningful.
As Steven’s team manager and mentor, it was a pleasure to guide and support him in any way I could. His determination and willingness to learn made my role both fulfilling and enjoyable. Steven’s presence on the team was a blessing, and his impact will be felt long after his passing.
Rest easy, Steven. Your pasion, spirit, and the joy you brought to kayaking and to those around you will never be forgotten. It was an honor to know you and to share in your journey.
