Luke,
We hadnt talked in quite some time, but when I heard, I was in total dismay. I didnt know much about you these last few years, but I know who you once were. Kind, smiley and adventurous. You were once my best friend. I remember the very first day we met, in 6th grade. We were the two best breakdancers at Bursley elematary & always won dance competitions at the Underground. We were always at one of each others house's after school. Jumping on the trampoline, riding bikes or drawing on each other with "washable" markers that later on realized didnt wash off so easy. Our long road trips in your stick shift car & grinding through the gears. Up to playing hacky sack before high school or at lunch. And sometimes walking each other to class.
We may have grown apart Luke, but I will never forget you & will always miss you! Prayers to your family and friends.

A great friend, a childhood neighbor and a huge piece of our hearts. You never talked to one of us alone without mentioning to make sure we gave the other person and Layla a "hi!" from you also. I always loved when Alex told me you said hi. Layla tells us she remembers you dancing at a concert and your underwear was showing and she scolded you. Your reaction is her favorite memory I guess! I pray you are at peace Luke and that you can now pass strength onto your family and the ones you love most. Biggest hugs.

Tim, Deb and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Luke was our favorite Barista, always impressing us with his latte art. He smiled and waved whenever we saw him in the neighborhood, that smile and kind spirit will be missed. May the fond memories of your son provide you some comfort.
