Anyone who knew Chad was truly blessed. He was a one of a kind! He was one of the greatest guys you could have met! He was a very hard worker, and often had hard and bad times. I think he deserved more than this world could have gave him. He would have done anything in anyway he could just to help. I feel truly blessed to have spent all 22 years of his life being his sister. He is survived by me, his older sister, and an older brother, as well as our mother, not to mention two nephews he was absolutely crazy about, and 3 nieces as well.
He was never a father, but a great uncle!
Unfortunately, Chad was killed by a drunk driver. But, he wasn't alone, setting beside him was his fiancee, and sitting next to her, was Chad's best friend. If it had to happen, I'm glad it happened with all three of them together.

Uncle

Love Your Neice

Robert Lucke was a great friend. He died Feb 5th after slipping on some ice while climbing Horsetooth Rock in Fort Collins, CO. He fell 100 feet to his death. May he always be remembered.. He was one of the best people I know.

She was the greatest woman I ever met I will always love you and miss you dearly, Grandma

To my little boy. I know you weren't with me long but I treasure those 9 months that I carried you inside me. You are my little angel and you are missed every day. I can't imagine how big you would be now. I love you and someday I will be with you again. Love Mommy

Four years on, I still remember how tiny you were when you lay in my arms. I'll always remember my little girl!
Love Mammy.

Such a young, nice person. I can't believe this happened. It is a shock for everyone. After Neil's death last year i hoped nothing like this would happen. But drinking and driving claimed another, and i can't believe it was you. You were only 18, and had your whole life ahead of you. Now, you are dead. You always liked having fun, and were easy going. I was not the closest to you, but i knew you did not deserve this. Everyone already misses you, and can't believe this has happened. Good bye.

This is created in memory of our wonderful father, Martin Ludicke, who was a hero in a very ordinary, unassuming and modest way. He always acted responsibly, cared for others and gave all that he could to the people around him. He was a man who experienced much loss in his life, which was ravaged by World War 2, the early death of our mother, and made difficult by the times and circumstances around him. Although I would like him to be remembered for many things, including his prodigious general knowledge and curiousity about the world around him, finally, it would be his gentle patience and his beautiful gardens that seem the most appropriate memorial for this loving man. Rest in peace Dad, our thoughts are always with you and Mum, love always, your children, Joy Blake, Jacki Guendouzi, Martinne Ludicke, Penny Ludicke, John Ludicke and Hector the cat.

To Daddy's little girl.It's only been 3 weeks. We miss you like crazy. We loved you since the day you were born. All our memories of you is now treasures in our hearts. From Daddy and Mommy.

Hi Dad. It's been over 2 years since you have gone. Dad please keep an eye on Kelly. We know she can be a handfull sometimes. We love you both and miss you every day.

Momma,
You are missed each day. It has been 18 months since God called you home and it is as hard today as it was then. I know you are no longer suffering and you are rejoicing with the Lord and someday I will see you again. I really wish you could have been here to see my graduation from college. I know how happy that would have made you, but that was not in God's plan for you.
Love Forever
Schatzie

Father and Grandfather
You are gone from our lives but not from our hearts.Sadly missed by your children Ramon Antonio Lugo Jr.,Maria Elena Lugo,Salvador Lugo,Linda Ada Lugo and Laura Lee Ortiz and your grandchildren Tracy Marie Montalvo,German Edgar Montalvo and Destinee Deanna Marie Lugo.

we love you Pop
we miss you Lelo

Dad - it's been 4 years, yet still feel you haven't really left.

Miss You everyday !

In heaven we will be together forever !

To my beloved grandmother,
She will be sadly missed by my mother and my father, as well as my sister, Suzanna, my brother, Tony and of course, myself. As my father put it, she had a hard life, as she lived through World War II in China, but she was a lady of few words. She never showed anyone any suffering she went through but instead always offered a kind smile. I miss her dearly as I lived solely with her for almost half my life. She was a second mother to me.
Grandma, I know you're in heaven right now with your TV with chinese channels, a big kitchen for you to cook, lots of people to enjoy your food and a huge pantry stocked full of snacks. I can't wait to join you someday so that we can watch WWF together again. Wo ai ni.
I love you and will never forget you.
Your grand-daughter, Juliana

You are my mother and I miss you very much. Daddy cries everyday because his life is so empty without you. Everyone that you have touched feels the pain of your loss. I will never understand why God took you away from us right now.You had a lifetime left to live. I am living it for you, by wearing all of your clothing, perfume and jewelry. Our lives are moving on in different directions at a rapid speed. This is all because of you. You made sure to provide for the future, and that is helping us now. There is not a moment that goes by that we do not think of you and wish that you were still here. I have learned so much about you since you have left this earth and I cannot share it with you. We are all so sorry that we were not aware of the seriousness of this lousy disease of cancer 3 years ago. We could have helped you then. The pain and shock of your loss is too much for us to handle. We love you very much (Sexy Mommy), you lite up our lives and everyone else's that you touched. Love Audrey, Daddy, & Steven

For My Daddy

Life has been forever changed since you passed away. Our lives are so empty. You made everything so special. You have made me a better person by the time you took in my life. You have made me want to be kinder and more understanding. You were more than a father. You were our best friend. There was nothing that I couldn't talk to you about. Your cancer was the hardest thing in life to handle but you made us understand that it was God's will. You accepted that before we could. You were the strongest person I have or will ever meet. You handled death with a dignity that I have never seen. You held on long after the Doctors had given up hope. You had to prepare us for the time that you had to leave. You were an amazing human being who saw the good in everyone and your faith was unbending. It's what got you through it all. I miss you so very much. There are times when things are bad that I think if only I could talk to you. I hope that when people look at me they say you are like your father. That is the best compliment. I could never write in a memorial how special you really were and how we will be forever sadden by loosing you. There are no words. Thank you for being a great man and a loving father. You will be in my heart forever. I love you, Melanie

Oh, Daddy, how I have missed you over these years since you left us. I still find myself thinking "I can't wait to tell Dad this," only to have cold reality set in. So many things have happened in our family, and your absense is still a terrible void in my life. You were a great dad...not perfect, but you were the first one to admit that! I cherish the letters and cards you gave me to apologize for being wrong or to tell me how proud you were of me, and I keep them along with the birthday cards that you picked out for me for the five years after your death. I love you, Daddy, and I know you are watching and waiting for me at Heaven's Gate. Take special care of Samantha...losing her was horrible, but I know that she is with you and with Jesus now. I miss you terribly, Daddy, and love you still so much it hurts. Leann

Wayne, I couldn't resist leaving a memorial for you on the information superhighway------you would've loved all this Internet stuff and I'm sorry you didn't get to enjoy it. Your death from colon cancer at age 46 altered the lives of our daughters and me immeasurably -- thank you for giving me permission to move on with my life when I was ready.... knowing that you didn't want me to be alone made it easier for me to accept Len's love when I found it. The girls are still struggling and malfunctioning in so many ways...they miss their daddy and have not yet come to terms with your death but I pray every day that they will find the peace that eludes them. I know that you are singing in the heavenly choir -- I can still see your head thrown back and the love in your eyes as you sang about the Lord -- thank you for the legacy you left for us and the lives you touched for Christ. Your life represented integrity and Christian principles and was a shining example of Christ's transforming power to all who knew you. Love, Mary Fran The clock of life is wound but once, And no man has the power To tell just when the clock will stop At late or early hour. So work, love, play with a will For tomorrow the clock may then be still. Author Unknown

In loving memory of my dear sweet mom, whom will never be forgotten. It has been almost two years and yet somwhow it seems like I just saw her yesterday. Cancer cruely took her life and it was the hardest thing I have ever had to watch in my young years. Many agree that she was the most beautiul person known in our lives. She was always willing to extend herself for another no matter what the cost. I have lots of regrets. Feelings of "'I should've done this or that." There is never enough time when you love someone as much as I love her. But in my heart I know I'll see her again and that brings me great comfort on many an aimless night. When I'm sad and lonely I see her smile and hear laugh. I used to love to make her laugh. She was infectous. And I know that she is with my father, wherever you go in the afterlife and I'm sure that they are laughing together, waiting for their only daughter to someday join them again.
I'll always love you both!

In loving memory of my dear cousin, Rick, who was taken from this earth at age 33 due to pancreatic cancer. May you rest in eternal peace, my dear loving cousin, and I know you will be there to great me when I cross over.

With love, Karen

I would just like to recognize my great aunt Honey. She was a wonderful person. She loved to cook, and be with her family. I remember her unique ways of trying to get us to quit our bad habits, like sticking out our tongues. Every time I visited her she always had toys upstairs and food in the kitchen. Our family will miss her very much. Hopefully we have all learned a thing or two from her. Honey, we love you. Salut!

Loving husband of Maureen. Wonderful father of Jane, Adele Jim & Mike. Son of Ivy and the late Ernie. Brother to Sandra.
An amazing man.
Dad, I miss you very much. You were taken so quickly from us with no time to tell you how much we needed you and loved you, but I am sure you knew. I miss your good advice, your sarcasm, your love, and your big hugs when I come home. You were ultimately the most important person in my life and I still can't believe that you are gone. You will always live on inside of me dad, I will always love you and never forget how much I owe to you. I am so glad you saw me graduate, you must have been as proud as I was when you got your degree. I will always remember the proud look in your eyes.
I miss you dad. Have fun fishing. I love you. Your daughter Jane.

Dad, You are my hero, you are the wind beneath my wings. Dr. P.M. "Wally" Lutchmansingh graduated from Penn State University with a B.S., M.S., and PhD in Petroleum Engineering. Diabetes recently took the life of this wonderful man. He would do anything for anyone. There's no one else like him. On August 18, 1995, God looked around his kingdom and found an empty space. Then he looked upon us all and saw your loving face. He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest. His kingdon must be beautiful, for He only takes the best. He knew you were in pain, He knew that you would never get well on earth again. It broke our hearts to lose but you didn't go alone. A part of us went with you, On your final journey home.
We love you and miss you dearly.
Your forever loving daughter, son, wife and son-in-law.

Papa, we miss you very much. And though I never new you, I am told that part of you lives on in me. Take good care of Nana, and see you in heaven some day! Tom

Thelma Laythrop Luther was born November 9, 1906 in Collinsville, Illinois. She was the eldest of three children. Anabelle (1908-1965) and Lee (1907-1987). Thelma was raised and lived most of her life in Illinois. She met Durward Belmont Luther (known as D.B.) and they were married on February 8, 1930 in Collinsville. Through D.B.'s job with an insurance company, he traveled quite a bit. On April 7, 1931, William Albert Luther was born. This was their only child. After raising Bill, they eventually moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma and finally Miami, Florida where Thelma was living when D.B. died suddenly on March 15, 1960. In 1962, she moved to Ottawa, Illinois to be close to Bill and Linda and their 3 children. (Little did she know that I would come about 8 years later as her youngest grandchild!) I have had the joy of sharing many fond memories of "Nana" as she is so fondly remembered by us. I got to spend 28 good years sharing her love and devotion as a grandmother. On May 19, 1998 Thelma died at the age of 91. What a tremendously joyful life she shared with her family. She loved us all, she loved her church and most of all, she loved God. We will miss her greatly, but someday, we will be together again, in Heaven! We miss you and love you Nana! Love your grandson, Tom

Lise was a warm, gentle and generous friend, who brought out the best in everybody by giving the best of herself. She put up a courageous fight against cancer, and ultimately accepted death with equal courage. She is fondly remembered and missed by her friends, family, colleagues and cats.

Loving Son, good friend. Died of cancer at the age of 18. Missed by many. Never forgotten.

A gentleman, a brother who took care of his younger. A friend and a confidente . A public defender extraordinare. I miss you and see you in my dreams occassionally. It is good.
