Luke Pederson Obituary

Hi Frank Hamlin. This is Kelly, Luke´s mom. I tried posting a message on this platform with my phone number but I guess that´s not allowed. Not sure how to get in touch with you regarding Luke´s Bible.

This is Kelly, Luke´s mom. Please feel free to contact me at 434.326.2774 regarding Luke´s Bible.

We have Luke’s Bible, presented by his parents Joe & Kelly in 2011. Long story on how we got it, but would like to return to family.

Happy heavenly birthday, Luke! I miss you!!

Dearest Luke, I know you are now together with Grandma and Grandpa. I miss you all terribly, but it makes me happy to know you are all together again and no longer in pain. I love you all, Auntie K

When you see the sunrise, think of me.
When the cool breeze touches you,
Know that I am free
when you feel the sorrow
of us being apart,
Know I am not lost
I am a part of your heart.

by Stephanie Laird

Still missing you and Vanessa. Wished we'd had more time together here on earth. Looking forward to eternity with you both. Love, mom and Joe XOXO

I remember the day like yesterday, I looked into your heart. (It was beaming!) I could see you shared It freely and sadly you couldn't know and feel the love life had for you. I remember always

Missing you and loving you always. Auntie K

Luke,
Thank you for your presence and influence upon my life. I am always thinking about you and the lessons you continue to teach me as I listen to your wisdom. Nancy

is not to die. Thomas Campbell
Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard, and always near. Still loved, and still missed Unknown

Miss you, my sweet, loving boy. Auntie K

Remember me

To the living, I am gone.
To the sorrowful, I will never return.
To the angry, they were cheated.

But to the joyful, I am at peace.
And to the faithful, I never left.

I cannot speak, but I will listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.

So as you stand upon a shore,
Gazing at a beautiful sea...
Remember me

As you look in awe at a mighty
Forest and its grand majesty...
Remember me

As you look upon a flower and
Admire its simplicity...
Remember me

Remember me in your heart, your thoughts,
Remember the close, loving times we shared;
The times we cried; the times we quarreled;
The times we laughed.

For in these times that you gently remember me...
I am not gone.

Luke my only son, I wish I could have taken away your pain and the judgements you experienced in this world. I will miss your smile, your love, and your bear hugs my friend. I wish we could go on one more motorcycle ride, one more hike, and see one more movie together. But no more...now you are finally free. I love you and miss you so much it hurts. Dad

Luke, my heart continues to break. After our many talks about taking the best route, I am heartbroken that you chose this one. I will never forget our lengthy conversations, your servant heart, and our laughing out loud together...I will always remember our laughs. I know you are now living with our Savior. As I try to remember that I will never forget you here as long as I live. You smile and laugh makes me laugh between my cries. I miss you son more than you know, and trying to hide it from your Mom is hard! PS: You know she tries to hide it from me but I know, just as you would. I'm anxious knowing this world is nothing but a blinking of an eye to see you again son. I love and miss you terribly.

Luke you will be missed!! I wish we would've lived closer so we could have done more family things together. Love U!!!!

Betty, Glen, Neil, and Kristen, I just read of Luke's passing. I am so sorry. My heart breaks for you. I can't imagine what this is like for each of you. I don't know what to say other than each of you and your families will be in our prayers. May God give you comfort, strength, and peace for the days ahead. Sandy and Duane

To all of Luke's Family, it was shocking to hear of the loss of Luke. I had the privilege of meeting him several times on visits to Colorado -- once we were both guests at the home off Brian and Kristen. My condolences to all of you and I pray that God will bring comfort to your grieving hearts. How wonderful it is to know that Luke is now with the Lord and that we will see him again.

Luke, I can remember the day you were born. I was so excited to be an Aunt! And you did not disappoint, you were such a cute, cuddly, loving little boy. When you became a young man, you were always, kind and considerate...at family gatherings you forgot you were a guest and would be helping me in the kitchen. I think of you everyday and miss you terribly. I am so grateful we had these last few years with you in Colorado. You were an awesome Grandson, Son and Nephew and we were so blessed to have you as long as we did. You truly were a "gift" on loan to us from God. Love you sweet boy, Auntie Kristen

Neil, Lelah, Betty and Glen, We are so sorry to hear about the loss of Luke. We returned from Florida last evening and I am in shock from the devastating news. I wish I could find the right words that would make you feel better, but there are none. We are praying for you and wishing you peace.

Joe, Kelly and Armond...we are so saddened to hear the news of Luke. Thank you for including us in the email. We cannot even fathom the emotions that you are feeling. All we know is that God is so good...all the time. We have fond memories of your family in Italy. Luke is no longer suffering. May the God that is forever holding Luke's hand, now hold yours during this difficult time. We love you and miss you!

Dear Betty, Glen, Neil and Lelan. While I do not know Luke I feel I did because Betty loved him so much. I am really sorry to hear of his passing. I know this is a very difficult time but the awesomeness of being loved by our Lord is he was not alone even in the end because Jesus promises us He will be with us always even unto the end of the earth. I pray you will find comfort in knowing you are in our thoughts and prayers and Luke is really in a better place even if we don't understand things. I am sure he is finding peace, joy and understanding with our Lord.

Kelly,Joe and Armond We are saddened
and shocked to hear of Luke passing. We will be praying for you all. Jeff and Gina Eldridge

Neil, Lelah , Betty and Glen, I'm so sorry for your loss. I just don't have any words. Praying that there will be better days ahead.

Love you so much darling Luke... We will see you when it is our time to be with our Maker! Your loving, Auntie Dovi

Dear Kelly & Joe,
Lifting you up in prayer daily for strength & comfort in your great loss.
Our hearts ache for you & what you are going through. Listen to the song by Kari Jobe, "I Am Not Alone", for it says it all & was a comfort to me.
Loving you & missing you.
Deanna & Johnny

Luke, I'm blessed to have known you as a child and to have been able to correspond with you occasionally as an adult. I'll always picture you as that beautiful baby boy with the mischievous grin.

It is so sad to lose someone so young and I am sure you are now with your soulmate. I extend heartfelt sympathies to your family. They will miss your smile and your love.

Shocked and saddened to hear of Luke's passing. That smile is unforgettable, always looking to the future and always asking "why". God hold you and your family in his hand and comfort you.

Words cannot express our love for y'all. We pray for comfort and peace and are happy that he is home with Jesus!

Son I miss you immensely! You brought so much laughter and joy to my life. I am honored to be your mother and to have been given the opportunity to love on you and care for you. You were always God's child I took care of and am at peace knowing He is loving on you in person now. I praise God your struggles and suffering are over and you are singing praises to Jesus. Save a seat for us at the banquet table for the wedding feast with Jesus. Can't wait to see your beautiful joyful smile again, hear you laugh, and hug you again. Love you son, now and for eternity. XOXOX Mom

What a handsome man! We are sorry we never had the pleasure of meeting him. Our prayers are with you for comfort and peace knowing he is with his beloved Vanessa.

I only saw you a few times when you were a little boy, but I know you were very important to my cousin, Neil, his then-wife Kelly, and the current step-parents. My heart is sad to hear you are gone. Thoughts and prayers to Neil's family as they go through this difficult time.

Dear Neil & Lelah, Glen & Betty, I am saddened to read this news. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I am so sorry for your terrible loss.

Holding you all close in heart,with prayers for God's peace as you say farewell to your precious son.
Love, the Chapman Family
Bulverde, TX

The world got a little darker with Luke's passing and we will sorely miss him but know he is in the arms of Christ. Wish we could have had one more cigar together because I hear Heaven is all non smoking! Uncle B

Luke, I miss you terribly! Thanks for being my dance partner, giving me lots of hugs, and for teaching me to not judge people. I loved you more than you'll ever know......

Forever in our hearts, our sweet precious "Nuke"! We love you as one of our own sons and are blessed to hold you and care for you. Rest in peace dear Angel!

We will miss you forever and cannot imagine life without you. We love you! Your "favorite" auntie.

Thoughts and prayers to the family. So sorry for your loss. May God bless you in this time of sorrow.
