Leo Lujan Obituary

Leo Lujan

July 9, 1933 - December 7, 2024

Sacramento, California - Arrived in this life on July 9th 1933 and passed away into the arms of our Lord on December 7th 2024 in Sacramento, CA. Leo was a husband, father, son, brother, grandfather, and uncle. A true warrior of strength, courage, compassion, spiritual commitment, patience, and dedication. He had his favorites, a few of them being the beautiful wristwatch worn by his wife, steak, football, his beloved San Francisco 49ers and Giants. He was his grandson's favorite golf partner. Leo proudly served our country in the United States Army during the Korean Conflict and was stationed in Fort Lewis, WA and in Fort Ord, CA. He was an outstanding athlete at Napa High School in football, baseball, and track. He believed that "The race is not always to the swift, but to those who keep on running." Leo was preceded in death by his son Stephen Lujan. He is survived by his lovely wife Mary Ann Lujan, son Michael Lujan, and grandson Jason Lujan. Forever in our hearts.
