John Lucas Obituary
It is with great sadness that John Maxim Lucas' wife Kristin and his children Sofia, Jack, and Nathaniel announce his sudden and unexpected passing on July 7, 2023.
John loved his family deeply. He was a beloved son to Paul and Barbara Lucas of Chaplin CT. He was an extraordinary husband and an amazing father. He designed and built a beautiful home where they spent many happy years surrounded by the land he loved. John was a friend and mentor to many. He was always generous with his time and was enthusiastic about sharing the lessons that he learned from his many experiences. His joy and vitality will live on in our memories, but he will be forever missed by those he loved so freely.
