California's War Dead

Seven memories of Leon H. Lucas Jr.

“

We have known Leon Lucas Jr. since he was a teenager. We worked in the youth group at our church when he was in high school. We have kept up on his life through the years, and have prayed for him, as he served our country in harms way, as he married is wife, Mary, and had 2 children.
We are thankful for this young man's faithfulness to serve our country and give the ultimate sacrifice.
He was a faithful soldier and christian man and will be greatly missed.
We thank the Lord we know he is in heaven, because he trusted Christ as his Saviour many years ago.
The Bible says in Psalm 116:15, "Precious is the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints."
Our sincere condolenses go out to the family, his father, Leon Sr., his mother, Teresa, his wife, Mary and their two sons, and also his three sisters.
We are praying, especially, for Mary, also at this time and the baby she is carrying. May God give you grace and comfort as you raise your children for the Lord. Know we are praying for you.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with each of you, at this time.
Love,
Ron & Lisa Knudson

To: Leon's Family and Friends,

I would like to give you my condolences. I didn't know Leon, but I'm sure he was a nice person. That was such a terrible way to die. In the Bible Psalms 46:9 says: "He is making wars to cease to the extremity of the earth." And Revelation 21:4 say: "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." This gives us a wonderful hope for the future. I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and when you see one of us we will be more than happy to answere any questions you may have from the Bible. May peace and comfort be with you.
