Lucas James Saurbaugh, age 19, of Painted Post, passed away very unexpectedly on Saturday, April 19, 2025. He was born on April 21, 2005 in Bath, the son of Jeffrey Saurbaugh and Kamie Saurbaugh.
Lucas graduated from BOCES/CPP High School in 2023 having earned the Most Outstanding Award. Lucas was a great athlete loving baseball and hockey, but more than anything else he had the most loving and empathetic heart. He would do anything for anyone and he proved that many times over to family, friends and even strangers. Lucas loved to fish and his happy place was by the stream with a fishing pole in his hand. Lucas was employed by Goodrich Auto Works in Bath.
He is survived by his mother, Kamie Saurbaugh (Richard Mealy), father, Jeffrey (Jennifer) Saurbaugh, siblings, Ben and Anna Saurbaugh, maternal grandparents, Robert and Valerie Button, paternal grandmother, Adele Rieppel-Kies, paternal grandfather, Russell Saurbaugh, step siblings Kaitlyn and Lucas Monroe, Hannah and Jacob Mealy, uncles, Aaron (Beki) Button, Craig Button (Pam Markel), Collin (Carrie) Button, Michael (Lisa) Saurbaugh, Brad (Kelly) Saurbaugh, and Ashley Saurbaugh, and many cousins. Lucas was predeceased by his paternal step grandfather, Richard Kies.
A private celebration of Lucas's life will take place at the convenience of the family.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Lucas's memory may be sent to Coopers Plains BOCES Auto Body Department or one's local SPCA or animal shelter.

Lucas (Chucky) was such a lovely person with a nice smile and a warm heart. A lovely kid taken away from this world too soon. We are so sorry for your loss and our prayers go out to the entire family.

Lucas was my neighbor. He was the nicest kid who grew into the nicest young man. He always smiled and said hello. He shoveled my driveway and never wanted to be paid. I can only imagine the heartache his parents are experiencing. I'll miss Lucas' smile.

My heart goes out to the entire family during this very difficult time and I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't know Lucas that well, and only met him through my son (Dillon). What an amazing young man that is gone way to soon. When I met Lucas, I could tell immediately what a great young man he was growing to be. He was polite, a good worker, a sincere friend and it was fun to see himself & Dillon have so much in common and when the 2 of them would get to laughing, it was absolutely priceless.
Sometimes there are just know words, but I'm certainly sure this kid will be extremely missed by many!
Hugs and prayers to you all.
Rest in peace Lucas
