Luke, I met you almost 2 years ago. I've seen you more over those 2 years than I have my own mother. No matter how bad life seemed to be kicking me, you always made fun of me to go along with it....while making me realize there is way more than stress to deal with. You may be the most positive person I've met and one of those that remain a part of me for a lifetime. I will miss our visits but through your "gravity like" personality and lasting impression you will live on in me and those who also had the privilege to know you. You will be eternal in our hearts as in Heaven. Now go swing some clubs on greenways up there.

Did not spend a lot of time with Luke and Buffy except for their visits to Kinder Lane on Douglas but always a smile and great attitude whenever we did visit.
Remember calling Luke when tree fell over from his lot to neighbors cabin in wind storm. He thanked me for notification and was always a gentlemen.
God rest his soul.
