John W. "Pop-Pop" Lukach

Brett,
I am sorry for your loss. I am also sorry for the late entry. I thought I had sent one earlier but it appears not have not gone through. I am sure you do not remember me since you were probably about a year old when we last met. I am your Dad's cousin. You, your Grandmother Mae and your Grandfather Mike visited my parents in Chillicothe, Ohio when you were a baby. I have geat memories as a kid visiting your Dad and grandparents in Maybrook. Your Dad and his aunts and uncles were...

Brett,
I always remember your father as a hard working, “true-grit” kind of guy with a wry sense of humor and a sparkle in his eye. I can’t say for sure how many things I saw him build or fix in your grandfather’s back yard, but if it needed to be fixed, and could be fixed, he was the guy who could fix it! And, oh-boy! If he put his mind to something, there was no stopping him! I remember a set of chrome tractor trailer smoke stack exhausts you and I helped him weld onto his old chevy...

My son, Paul, worked with John for many years at Southern Dutchess CC. My prayers go out to the family. He was a good friend and role model to Paul. John will be missed greatly at the club. God bless.

Brett and family,

I am at a loss for words that would make anything remotely better or bearable, all I can say my friend is I am sorry

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Brett, Colleen and Family,

My deepest sympathy and condolences to you and your family. I know that it is a difficult time for you. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Always remember the good times with your dad.

Brett,

I am so sorry for your loss, we had many good times growing up in Maybrook. I have many fond memories of your dad and your grandparents. I am so truly sorry that I cannot make it tonight as I am traveling home from upstate. Sending this from my sons laptop.

If you need anything at all just give me a call.

I worked with John at SDCC for six years. He was incredibly dedicated and had great work ethic! I always enjoyed stories about his family, especially his grandchildren. My sincerest sympathies to the Lukach family.

Brett, sorry for your lost. It's not easy losing a parent. I wish you the best and you'll be in my prays. Best of luck. Your Dad and Dee have always been very good to our family. Lots of luck and if you need anything let me know.
