Johnny Lujack

I remember Mr Lujack from my days working at Crow Valley Golf Club in Davenport, IA, he was funny, energetic and always had something smart to say while playing rummy or ordering a drink. My condolences to the family, he was a legend to many, but so much more.

Our deepest condolences to the family. We pray that God continues to strengthen and comfort the family during this difficult time.

Please accept my deepest heartfelt sympathy. Johnny's grandmother Josephine Kolacinska Luczak and my great grandfather (mom's grandfather) John Kolacinski were brother and sister. Johnny Lujack was mentioned with pride often in our home.

When I was in 8th grade I sent him a photo to be autographed. He graciously responded. I had the thrill of seeing him play against Iowa the next year. He made a famous tackle in midfield against the famous Army team featuringDavis and Blanchard and saving Notre Dame from defeat. God rest his soul. Father William Fitzgerald

An avid football fan but also a PT in the Coachella Valley who saw Pat often before her move from the area, my thoughts are with you guys. I only learned of Pat´s passing thru hearing of Johnny´s from family in IA who heard it on the news there. Pat and I always shared Iowa stories and I was known as her IA friend. I remember getting her attention and getting her to stand and walk by having her sing the Chicago Bears fight song (that was a little tough for me because I am a Packer fan) ....

Mary, Thinking of you with your father´s passing. Our oldest son (retired Navy captain) is blessed to have a signed photo from your dad. With deepest sympathy, Kristyn & Michael Mahler

My condolences to the family. It was my joy and honor to entertain Johnny at the President's home in Davenport some years ago. He was an extraordinary man, and we will miss the light that he brought into our world. Sister Joan Lescinski, CSJ, President Emerita, St. Ambrose University

Mary, I was so sorry to read of your father's passing. I have fond memories of high school days when your father would tease us with silly sayings whenever we came to visit. Please extend my sympathies to your sweet mother and brother too. Mary Dockery Huebner

Our mother Ruth M. Parker (Boyle) was a cheerleader at Connelsville when Johnny played. Her brother Edward (Jigs) Boyle was a teammate. We lost our Mom in May 2022 at the age of 98. We always enjoyed her stories of Connelsville and of Johnny. Our sympathies Our with the Lujack family. Connelsville lost another great one.
