Wow, I can hardly fathom that a decade has gone by without you, Luke. Everywhere I go, I am reminded of your precious spirit, your funny little face, and your endearing personality!!! I just did a banner presentation in Keystone to the song "Raise A Hallelujah", and I dedicated it to you!!! It was for all the ladies at the women's retreat, and I stated that you are the greatest little evangelist I ever knew!! I know you were watching me from Heaven, and Susie even told me afterwards that she heard...... "That's My Mom!!!" Lives are still being touched all of the time, even though you are not here anymore, and I know you are cheering us on from Heaven, buddy!!! It must be SO FUN just hanging out up there with Jesus!!!! I bet you are an expert snow boarder now!!!
Tyler's next mission as a U.S. Marine will be in AFRICA, Luke!!! ❤ WOW!! Your legacy continues to Bless that continent, too!!! GOD IS GOOD!!! ☝️❤ See you in the "blink of an eye" my son!!!! WE MISS YOU!!! ❤☝️❤
I missed writing your tribute on your actual birthday, but I thought about you ALL DAY!!
Mama had a terrible day that day! My car got wrecked, I found out your brother Anthony is back in jail again, and I had to go see the Periodontist, and found out I need $480 worth of oral surgery done. I was a wreck!!!
I am not a wreck so much anymore because you're gone though, because I know where you are!!! Heaven must be SO WONDERFUL, and I know that you're having a Glorious time with Jesus and our Loving Father, too!!! I bet you're snowboarding across the peaks of that place like none other! I knew you would get to be an expert one day....I just thought it would be down here in Colorado.
I sure do miss your brilliant smile that lit up the room! I miss our talks about Jesus, and how you always worried about your friends knowing about His Love, and going to Heaven, too.
I know that God threw a Great Party for you up there on your birthday to Celebrate the day He created Wonderful YOU!!! I hope you gave ice cream out to all the kids that came to your Amazing factory, too!!!
I love you buddy and I will see you when I get there!! It will be in the "blink of an eye", and then we will NEVER be separated again!!! ❤❤

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
"For the Lord Himself will descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord."
I LOVE YOU!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxo Mama

Luke's Love For People
Luke was- and still is- such an Amazing spirit!! He was always concerned about other people, and especially about their position with Salvation in Jesus Christ......so much so that he worried about people going to hell, and he spoke about these things often, especially in regards to his friends at school. He was a kid after the heart of God, and he loved Jesus very much!!! ❤ Luke was in the 4th grade, and I will never forget how he came home from school the day that Michael Jackson (the king of pop) had died, which was on June 25, 2009....he was really sad and crying, and he asked me if Michael was in Heaven? Luke knew Jesus Christ, The Lord of Glory, and he was asking me if Michael Jackson did too? I explained to him that I could not possibly know that answer, and only God Himself knew the answer......so he just suddenly says to me, "Well, I guess I'll find out when I get there!!!" I remember feeling a twinge of pain in my heart at that moment, and I told my precious 9 year old son, "Don't worry about it!! You aren't going to Heaven for a very long time!!!"......Luke suddenly left for Heaven a mere 4 months later, on October 29th, 2009......I guess he knows now if Michael is in Heaven, and I truly hope that they are doing the "Moonwalk" together in God's Glory!!!!
All Sheila's Children are Very close to my Heart, and I love them all, I was lucky to be able to be there when Luke was Born, I was in the Operating Room with Sheila and got to Cut Lukes cord when he was born, it was a really awesome experience to share. and I was lucky to be a part of their lives for many years. I wish that time changes and growing up didnt come between us so I could have known Luke, Tyler and Anthony as they grow into young men. My memories of them will be cherished forever. and Im sorry that Luke has parted us here on Earth But I know I will see him again. Love and Miss you Luke.
Luke's Iditarod Race
Luke took part in the 2009 Fairmount Elementary Iditarod Sled Race, and he was so excited to be the team's musher. A musher is the one who drives the sled behind the dogs, but we had no dogs racing- just kids! He led the kids to a stunning victory that day, and he was so happy and proud! He quickly gave me his first place prize, which was a small stuffed Husky sled dog, and told me that day that I should, "Keep it forever, Mama!" I told him that day that I surely would. I had no idea that he would depart later that very same year for his Heavenly eternal home, but I will always keep that little sled dog......until we meet again, Luke......I love you, my little buddy...... :)
