The wife of Sgt. Donald Lucas cradled their baby daughter in her arms Wednesday as she bid farewell to her husband at the first of six funerals this week for soldiers killed during Canada’s deadliest day in Afghanistan.
At the conclusion of the ceremony, Natasha Lucas carried daughter MacKenzie and held her son Matthew’s hand as her husband’s casket, draped in the Canadian flag, was led away from St. Thomas United Anglican Church.
Hundreds of mourners attended the service, where Lucas, 31, was remembered as a highly regarded soldier and father figure to many.
“He was a good guide to the young military men,” said Charmaine Meaney, whose brother-in-law served as a pallbearer.
