Lucas 'Luke' Ahrens

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your son. No parent should ever have to experience such a devastating loss. Your family is in my prayers.

Luke was a fellow coworker of mine when we were both seasonal employees at Bodie Island Lighthouse. Although I mostly knew Luke only in a professional capacity, his kindness was a fond memory I carried with me after our season ended. I never met someone who loved the sun, sand, and surf as much as he did. I will remember him for his physical vigor, his endless kindness, and his sheer exuberance for new experiences, always. Rest easy, friend. You are deeply loved and deeply missed.

Much love, condolence, and support for Luke's family and friends. He was clearly a bright star among us. His energy and enthusiasm will surely live on through the incredible people and places that were part of his life.

Such a short life for a wonderful young man .
I remember when the brothers were very young and full of energy!
My condolences from your cousin
