We are holding all of you in our hearts. So sorry to read of Luann's passing. Christian ( DJ) you are a wonderful legacy for your mom. You are a "cream of the crop" kind of guy. So fun, so kind, so gifted. She LOVED to tell me about you when we ran into each other in the neighborhood. Her eyes would just light up.
A mother's love is forever.
Sending love and hugs to you and all the family.

Luann was a force of nature. Her boundless energy was most often focused on others, and she enriched more lives than can be counted. It is a rare privilege to admire someone without reservation, and Luann gave me that privilege. My friendship with her is, and always will be, one of the deepest joys of my life.

Goodbye, my darling friend.
