If anyone reads this, could you please let me know if he played football in high school or worked at a major hotel chain? I've been searching for my old friend for years and I keep stumbling upon this hoping it's not him, but I need to know. Thank you.

Luke,
I just wanted to let you know that your always in all of our hearts and I pray that you will forever watch over your nephew!
When you have come to the edge
of all the light you know,
And are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown,
Faith is knowing.
one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid
to stand on,
or you will be taught how to fly.
We love you & miss you!

?"I will be glad and rejoice in your love, ...because you saw my suffering;... you knew my troubles.... You have not handed me over to my enemies but have set me in a safe place." Psalm 31:7-8 just thought this would help with Luke
Thoughts and prayers are with you all

My thoughts and prayers to your family during this time. I had the pleasure of being Luke's kindergarten teacher, and I have fond memories of him. He always had a smile on his face, and that smile would light up the room. I remember how caring he was and how well-liked he was by others. May God give you peace, and may wonderful memories help you through this time.

To Luke's precious family and friends,
I want to express my most heartfelt sympathy for you all.
He was a precious son, and all will miss him..
He is in God's hands and safe care.
He was at Les's funeral and with a touch of a comforting hand on my back was
an angelic touch.
He has many lives.
God bless you all and give you His peace.

I have been putting this off because I just did not want to believe this was true, but the more days went on it became more and more real to me that this was as true as life itself. As much as I wanted to run from the truth it eventually caught up to me, and here I am finally facing it. I didn't know Luke as long as most people, but the time we did have together was enough time for an amazing friendship to blossom. Luke was like family to me and he will always be in my heart. We shared some good times here in San Diego. I just want you to know that Luke will be missed terribly by a lot of people here in San Diego and we love and miss him very much. The family and him will always be in our hearts and thoughts. Love you Luke, miss you man.

Luke was an absolutely wonderful student for the five years that I was at Saydel, and then as an athlete on the team with my son after I left the school. I remember him as very kind, respectful and considerate and a good role model for the other students. Our prayers are with you in this sad loss.
