Luca Jay St. Juliana, was born at 6:26 AM, on July 12, 2025, at Hannibal Regional Hospital and called home shortly after.
In his short life, Luca was baptized and placed into the loving arms of his parents, Samantha Lynn (Zielinski) and Jared John Riley St. Juliana. Samantha and Jared were able to hold their precious son as he passed into the tender embrace of Jesus.
Luca was beloved from the moment he was conceived. His name means "bringer of light" and Luca's light brought a tremendous amount of warmth and love to his parents and his entire extended family. He is an angel who will forever live in their hearts.
Luca's memory will forever be cherished by his parents, Samantha and Jared St. Juliana; grandparents, Lynn (Pankavich) and Kenneth Zielinski, and Jolyn (St. Juliana) and Brian Friedrich; great grandparents, aunts, and uncles.
A Mass of Christian Burial for Luca will be celebrated at Holy Family Catholic Church at 10:00 AM, Friday, July 25, 2025. Fr. Greg Meystrik will officiate. A private family burial will follow at a later date.
