Mr Lundy taught me physics at THS in 1976. I wanted to be an eye doctor and told him so. I asked if he would proctor a course in physics in optics as an independent study for me. He agreed an I was approved to take this course on my own with his grading and tutoring. He gave me an A in the course. Later that year when it was time to graduate, he presented me with a scholarship for $200 coming from him personally! It was the only scholarship I got and I never forgot that. I did go on to become an eye doctor with Mr. Lundy's encouragement. He will not be forgotten!

Coach Lundy always had some forward thinking to share. If it was life, school, or coaching. He made me think, ponder, and challenged my intentions. My prays are for those close to him, to be comforted by God, that Gods angels surround them comfort them and bless them. Thank You Lord for allow me to meet this man in my life. Raymond Juvera

I am a graduate of THS, class of 1977. Coach Lundy was an inspiration to so many students in countless ways, me included. The world is indeed a sadder place without him. My prayers go to the entire Lundy family. Godspeed Coach. Rafael Gallego

I've often thought about Mr. Lundy since I left THS. Wrestling was one of my major joys in high school. He also taught me physics and the physics of sight was one of the first subjects that led me to become an Optometrist today. He was not only a teacher but an inspirer.

Mr. Lundy as a coach and teacher was exemplary. He also showed a father's patience with many of us students at Tucson High. I so appreciated that he made the matmaids feel a part of the wrestling team. At times he even treated us like daughters. Mrs. Lundy and girls, thank you for sharing your husband and father with so many people. It is an honor to have known him. I am so sorry for your loss and I will keep you all in my prayers.

Mr. Lundy was a Physical Education Teacher at Mansfeld Jr. High when I first encountered him. We went thru high school at Tucson High for four years and he was not only a teacher and coach, he was a mentor to so many young men and women. He had his hands in baseball...I remember one summer American Legion team that went to Phoenix and Mr. Lundy coached alongside THS alum Mike Odum. Whatever sport needed help, Mr. Lundy was there to help out...he had a fabulous sense of humour...and he had a way of communicating with students that was soft and simple yet,fun. I have many wonderful sports-associated memories of Mr. Lundy throughout my high school days from 1973-1977. He always wore shorts and those white sports shoes and was SO tan. He gave so much to so many....and I am a much better person for knowing him.

Mr. Lundy was my high school wrestling coach from 1981 to 1984 at Tucson High School. Looking back at that time, I remember that Mr. Lundy was a patient and devoted teacher who had a genuine interest in the wellbeing of his wrestlers. I know that many of my teammates and classmates are now successful because of what Mr. Lundy instilled in us. To the family of Coach Lundy, know that he did make a difference.
