It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our dear colleague and friend, Luch Payne, who transitioned on Wednesday, September 24, 2025.

Luch was more than just a coworker — he was family. He deeply loved Christ, his wife, Carolyn, his children and grandchildren, his church, and his community. He lived each day in service to them.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones and all who mourn his loss. May we find comfort in the love he shared and the light he brought into the world.
