Luke James Hafford joined God The Father in Heaven on February 2, 2025. Our free spirited, red headed baby brother was born in Fort Kent, Maine on June 17, 1994. Luke was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes not long after he turned 5 years old; a disease that took so much from him during his short 30 years. Luke was someone who had a joy for tinkering on all the things, exploring new places, and was always up for an adventure. He enjoyed riding motorcycle, especially with his beloved dog Fenway. Not only would Luke try anything once, he would be the first person to try it. He was always making people laugh. He was the type of person to tell you exactly what he thought. Being diabetic, he didn't like to sugar coat anything.

If you were lucky enough to be in Luke's inner circle, he would go to the end of the earth for you. If you were on the receiving end of his jokes and quick wit, you knew that he truly cared about you.

Luke always had some type of project going on. Depending on who he was talking to, he was a mechanic, a roofer, a painter, an electrician, a plumber, a landscaper, a contractor, a snow maker, a high-rise window washer, a woodworker, a carpenter, a pharmacist. He was forever just a little boy at heart; free spirited, stubborn, curious, and fearless.

Luke is survived by his fur baby Sami, paternal grandmother Theresa Hafford of St Francis, ME; his parents Jim Hafford of West Fairlee, VT and Trish Boncek of Quechee, VT; two sisters Jamie Fletcher of WRJ, VT and Shaunna Hafford of Windsor, VT. His niece and nephews whom he loved dearly, Ava Fletcher, Cylan Berry, Tukker Hardy, and Noah Hardy. He also leaves behind Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, and many, many friends. He is predeceased by his maternal grandparents Thomas and Elizabeth Boncek, his paternal grandfather Frederick Hafford, and his fur babies Maizy and Fenway.

In lieu of flowers or monetary donations; do something meaningful in memory of Luke.

A celebration of life will be held for Luke on February 23rd, 2025 at the Filling Station in WRJ, VT at 3pm.
