RIP luke. I remember he would always help me out in history class because i never knew what was going on. He would be my partner in English. And he was so smart. He was always laughing and helping someone out. We were not too close but he was a great classmate.

My heartfelt sympathys go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope the words of 1 Thessalonians 4 : 14 can help bring comfort. Knowing that there is a future for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
