Dear Pam, Angela, Charlie and Becky - and of course Christopher,
I was deeply saddened when I got the news about Luke. You know we had a wonderful history and I will aways hold him close to my heart. He was a thoughtful, gentle-man who viewed life through smiling eyes and was always ready to express his joy through his laughter. I will miss him. My prayers are with you in this time of mourning.
Deepest condolences,
Bonnie Kirk

Chris, I apologize for not being there for you when you needed it the most. I was unable to attend the services, but that doesn't mean I wasn't thinking about you and your family during this tragic time. I just want you to know how deeply sorry I am. I know exactly what you're going through because my dad has been gone for 10 years now. All you can do now is treasure the wonderful memories you two had together. My heart also goes out to Charlie and Angela, and the rest of the family.

I was shocked and saddened to hear this tragic news. Luke was a wonderful man who always had a smile and a kind word whenever he came into the 7-Eleven. Our days will be a little dimmer without his "Hey Ladies" He will be missed. My prayers are with you in this difficult time.

The Lord will comfort our hearts and time will lessen the pain, but Luke's smile and laughter will always live within us. Luke would be proud to know how much JOY he brought to all of us. I remember many fun times, like the car we towed from hamlin to ritter park on a foggy night down route 10, going what seemed like 50mph and I'm sure Luke was laughing all the way as he was the one pulling me. Many great times and memories will live on forever. The world has lost a wonderful man, but the Heaven's are laughing, as only Luke could make them do. My heart is near the family and my prayers go out to you all. Greg
