January 7, 2013
Luke was amazing, plain & simple. I will miss his light & love of life tremendously. He was one of those rare humans who dared to stand apart from the rest. I send heartfelt prayers for his family: may God bless as you move through this passage.

Lucas is still fifteen years old in my memories - unusually soulful and deep - artistic, handsome, sensitive, a loving brother and son. At school, he impressed us by being studious and conscientious about his learning - unwaveringly focused on his goals. I once captured a portrait of Lucas - I still have it- he looks like a Roman statue - so serious, regal and wise. My fondest memory of Lucas is reading poetry together by a fire at the Finnegan home one evening after dinner. I recall thinking, what special young men these Finnegan boys are - what a beautiful family. Sending all of you love and comfort at this difficult passage, and the assurance that his spirit lives on in those of us lucky enough to have shared time with him.

Oh, I just learned of Luke's passing and am so saddened to know that the earth has lost this rare, kind soul. I have clear memories of Luke when he was a high school student, including his insightful, hopeful decision to attend UWC. Kindness and healing blessings to the family...Christina Griffith

I am happy to have known Luc--mostly growing up but also through his brother and in odd meetings with Luc. He was a shining star like his brother. May he rest in peace before undertaking his next quest :-).
