Biography

PHILIP LUQUE JR.

Phil Luque, 62, passed away unexpectedly on February 22, 2010. He was born in Colorado Springs on July 18, 1947 to Philip L. Luque Sr., Estella Cordova Luque and was also the son of Doris Reisinger Luque. After high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Army serving two tours in Vietnam during which he was awarded the Bronze Star for meritorious service.

In 1971 he married his wife Claudia. Together they raised their children Philip and Amanda in Napa. Phil worked for the Napa Sanitation District for 30 years retiring as a supervisor.

Phil loved golf, camping, gardening and the Denver Broncos! When something needed fixing, everyone called Phil. Phil and Claudia belonged to the Weekend Loafers RV Club and shared many "Happy Hours" at various campgrounds throughout the western states. His greatest joy in life was being a grandpa (papa)!

Phil is survived by his wife of 38 years, Claudia Luque, son, Philip Luque, West Hollywood, daughter, Amanda (Justin) Johnson, West Sacramento, grandchildren, Justin Jr. and Tiana Johnson; sisters, Rachael Soto, his twin Pricilla Roberts, Maria Place and brothers, John, Rick, Mike and Robert all of Colorado.
