Lucas moved into the Cypress View Lodge and resided there for 24 years until he moved into the Riverview Nursing Home.
Lucas loved country music and enjoyed when various bands would come to play.

He had a passion for collecting Coke memorabilia and hats and was always proud to show off his collection to anyone who would come to visit.
Until We Meet Again
Our family chain is broken
And nothing seems the same,
But God calls us one by one
The Chain will link again.
Go Rest High Upon that Mountain
By: Vince Gill
I know your life
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren’t afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son
Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered ’round your grave to grieve
Wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son
Go to heaven a-shoutin’
Love for the Father and the Son
A private family graveside service will take place at Hillside Cemetery at a later date. Those who wish to remember Lucas with a donation, may do so to the Alzheimer’s Society.
