    Susie and George, my heart is broken knowing I will not see your sweet daddy in his back yard every time I go outside. We had some grand times talking about plants and ants….and the grandkids. I still look over there thinking he will be there, but then my heart rejoices knowing he is with the love of his life and rejoicing with the Lord.

    What a good long life your Dad lived imagine all the changes he saw as well as the good times he shared with family. Knowing your Mom will have chores for him to do in Heaven and I’m sure he’ll get right on it. Prayers and good thoughts with the Luke family.

    We have many fond memories of your parents. George and my dad, Robert Sterling, worked at Union Oil for years. Your daddy helped mine build their home in Bevil Oaks. They were great friends. I can only imagine the laughter going on in Heaven with those two. We sure understand what you’re going through with your loss. My family will be praying for your family.
