So sorry to hear of the death of Luther who was like a big brother to me. Known him for years. He always did my cars and was so very generous.

Family,
You know how Luther was a good friend to my husband and remained a great friend to our family in the 12 years since Gary went to his eternal home.

Luther's legacy as a sincerely kind man who as he was blessed, he blessed his community in sharing his knowledge, skills, resources and time.

I feel his loss and how it has impacted your family. Luther will be missed by you and so many others who really knew him for his kind heart.
~Our heart is with you~
