Luke was a very special person to me, as I know he was to many people. I already miss him a lot, but I cannot imagine what you must be going through. May God bless you and your family and friends in this difficult time and wrap His comforting arms around you. You are in my prayers.

Paul & Kam,



We send our deepest sympathy to you at this time of loss. Words cannot express the sorrow in our hearts. You and all your family are in our prayers and we know that your faith will carry you thru this tragedy.



We regret that we are not able to attend the services. Sue is in Washington DC and will not be back until late Saturday. I am stuck at work as usual. I believe that Michala and Brianne are planning to attend.

Once again, our deepest condolences and our prayers are with you.
