Xani was born in Goshen, New York, on February 8, 2006. He was the son of Christina Leppert-Chavez and Lucas Jones. At an early age, Xani was known for his heart of gold, always making people smile and developing friendships no matter where he went.

As a recent Pine Bush High School graduate, Xani was loved by so many of his classmates and fellow students! He will be remembered for his outgoing, no-fear, adventurous, take no BS, funny/sarcastic personality. He will always be remembered for being a protector of his siblings, cousins, and friends and for the unconditional love that he showed to all of his family. Xani had a smile that would light up a room. People gravitated to him and his handsome, dimpled self. He was easy to love and unapologetically him. He was a talented gamer, and lyrical artist and loved working with his friends to make music. He planned to be an entrepreneur in marketing and music.
