Renowned Cardiologist Levi Watkins Jr. Dies - DiverseEducation.com - According to the Montgomery Advertiser, Watkins was nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize for his contributions to the medical field but was never selected. His brother, Donald Watkins, told the Advertiser that he was amazed at the outpouring of love and support from around the world. “We’re very proud of his accomplishments as a person and professional,” Donald Watkins said. “It simply amazes us that a young man from Montgomery during the time of civil rights can go forth and touch so many lives in the world. It’s unbelievable. … Condolences are pouring in from all over the world from people who have been touched by Levi and his life’s work. What amazes me about Levi’s life is the sheer number of people who are living today because he believed in and practiced excellence in his profession.”
