Thank you Luke for being one of the best and most impactful leaders at JCI. I am still amazing at the quality of team you developed and the results we were able to achieve together. I appreciate all you did to help me to start out strong with JCI. You valued diversity and you always made time to coach. You will be missed but more importantly you will be remembered!!!!

David and Brian, Ricky and I are so sad to hear about Luke's passing. I worked with him as an administrator when he was branch manager of the New Orleans office. He made everyone in that office feel like family. My husband and Luke hit it off because both were country boys. We loved being invited to many of the BBQ's he had. He was a great manager and friend. I'm happy to know his is now with his beloved Marie. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. Hoping the great memories...

Luke was a great friend and classmate.
Prayers for the entire family as God holds the pieces of your broken hearts.

Luke was my branch manager at Johnson controls in Albany, Ga. He gave me my first job after college and helped me to launch my 33 year career with JCI. He was a good man. I have great memories of my time working for him. My first date with my wife of 35 years was to a Christmas party at Luke's house. I will be praying for all of the family that in the coming days your current feelings of loss will be replaced by the great memories of your time with Luke. Again, he was a good man that I have...
