To The Bradby Family,
May God's love continue to shine on you all as you bury your brother. Our families go way back. We, on the Sam Wilson side, share two sets of cousins as the late Uncle Warner and the vibrant Uncle Joshua married two of your siblings - the late Aunt Marion and our precious Aunt Lilian. We love you all and may the peace that passes all understanding guide you all through this moment. That's right, remember, this is just a moment. Mr. Luke is resting with the Lord.

Uncle Luke, I have a lifetime of memories to cherish thank you for your example! Sleep on Unc and take your rest we loved you but God loved you best. Everytime I see a hilltop I will smile because I know you are just over on the other side in your mansion!
