My deepest sympathy. I was a teacher assistant when Luke was a sweet, kind 2nd grader, I have fond memories of him as my student.
My prayers are with your family...

A young life cut short. God had a plan for Luke that is hard for us to understand but our faith will console us. Prayers for him and family.
