BRYSON LUKACIK Obituary

As he grew, baseball became his true passion on the field as well as the history and knowledge of the game. From Little League, including All-Stars, Pony League to El Capitan High baseball where he graduated in 2007. He continued to play college ball and currently played for a local semi-pro team. Taken from us far too soon in his young life due to a tragic accident. His memory lives on through his family and numerous friends. He leaves behind his father Joe Lukacik, mother Donna Canfield-Lukacik, brother Nick, sister-in-law Amy, niece Haley, nephew Kai, Grandpa Dick Canfield, PopPop Joe Lukacik and Grammie Bobbie Lukacik, several Aunts, Uncles and cousins. Always forgiven and never forgotten. Rest In Peace Bryson. You are loved by many. Services: Saturday, December 18, 2010, at 10:00 a.m., Foothills Christian Church, 315 Bradley Ave., El Cajon.

To the family of Bryson,

My heart goes out to you all. May you live your lives to honor him and find joy some day again. He would want that for you. May your memories of the good times with him eventually overcome the deep sadness you feel at his loss. Time does help somewhat. I will keep you in my prayers.....

I will forever remember Bryson as a smiley, spunky and fun kid on our Little League team. My husband, Keith had the pleasure of running into him less than a month ago and commented on what a fine young man he had become. Joe and Donna were loving parents and our hearts just break for their tragic loss. Praying for you all. Love, Becky Callen

My deepest sympathy to Bryson's Mom Donna. Gregg and i had some wonderful moments visiting with Bryson, talking about sports, baseball and also I had the pleasure of playing golf with him and remembering his approach trying to see how far he could hit the ball. His Grandpa and I were also amazed at how good he was. I know all of your family will miss him and so will Gregg and I.
