Honoring PJ: Help Us Remember His Joy

My 30-year-old nephew passed away suddenly on October 27, 2024, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. PJ (Patrick Lukert) was a lovable, fun young man despite the many challenges he faced in his early years. At the age of 18 months, PJ suffered a stroke that doctors said he would not survive; however, survive he did indeed do. PJ pushed through every obstacle and went on to graduate from Sapulpa in 2013. PJ achieved so many of the goals he set for himself. He always had a smile to share with everyone he met. He loved music and dancing, enjoyed working and making his own money, but mostly he loved his family. Our hearts will forever have a missing piece, but we will treasure the precious memories he has left behind.

My sister Teresa could really use your prayers during this difficult time and if you feel led and are able to help us reach our goal to provide a simple but appropriate Celebration of Life for PJ, we would be deeply grateful. PJ is at Smith Funeral Home in Sapulpa. If you have any questions, you can reach out to them or me.

Thank you and Many Blessings

PJ’s Aunt Jo (JoAnn)
