Irene Lujan Obituary

Visit the Whitney & Murphy Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.
Lewis Lujan, 63 of Phoenix Arizona was born on June 19, 1958.
Irene Lujan, 56, of Phoenix, Arizona was born on February 2, 1965.
Matthew Lujan, 30, of Phoenix, Arizona was born on July 22, 1991.
Lewis, Irene and Matthew passed away on August 8, 2021 at their home in Phoenix, Arizona.

Lewis and Irene Lujan were married for 34 years. Matthew Lujan was their loving son who also lived in the same household. Lewis was a plumber by trade but was out of work after recovering from a battle with cancer. He was certainly a master in his craft and was dedicated to his work when he was gainfully employed. Lewis was not always a man of many words, but when he spoke so eloquently you were sure to listen. He was very meaningful with his words and truly spoke from the heart. You needed to hang on to every word. His deep conversations from the heart will be missed greatly.

Irene worked for the Arizona Department of Economic security and was loved by her colleagues. She brought joy to her job and those around her. Her family knew her as happy go lucky and she was always there for her family. She would absolutely give up everything if it were necessary. She lit up the room whenever she walked in, and it was always a joy to be in her presence. Her bubbly personality and ability to always have a good time will leave a tremendous void.

Matthew worked for Fry's Food and Drug. He was loved by his colleagues, and everyone knew him as a wonderful person. He was a dedicated worker and was able to work his way up to his role as Assistant Manager. His family knew that he was always available to listen and would certainly allow you to get anything off your chest. He was there to provide any emotional support at a moment's notice. He was always interested in building you up. His loving and caring nature will be missed by his family and friends.

Irene and Lewis are survived by their children/siblings to Matthew: Travis and Amber Lujan; as well as their immediate and extended family of uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, and close friends. They were taken from us far too soon and we are truly heartbroken with this immense loss.

Services will be held at 3:00 p.m. at Resurrection Lutheran Church, 4930 E Greenway Rd., Scottsdale, AZ 85254.
A celebration of life will be held at: 2429 E. Amelia Avenue, Phoenix, following the service.
