Lance Corporal Luke Carney Yepsen

Hello, We wanted to let your family and friends know that we are sending Care Packages to deployed troops this week and several of these will be dedicated to your loved one. Each package will carry the name, photo and hometown of Luke C. Yepsen US Marine Lance Corporal. We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey...

To this day, I still mourn you. I wish I could see you again. No words can express how much I miss you and how much your brotherhood and friendship still means to me. I have yet to meet a man, a friend, and brother like you. I love you Luke. I hope I will see you again. Kory

Luke, it was our honor to stand tall and silent for you. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Brother I have thought about you a lot today.....and of that day when you were taken from us. I wasn't able to go see your parents this year, but they have been in my thoughts all day. I miss and love you brother, Memoria Semper Apud Nos! (we will always remember)

To the family and friends of Lance Cpl. Luke C. Yepsen:
Please accept my remembrance of Luke on the anniversary of his passing and know that he will never be forgotten.

To the family and friends of Lance Cpl. Luke C. Yepsen:
