Lucas led the way for the development of referees in Scotland and Europe and his tragic loss will be felt by many players, referees and organisers.  A memorial page has been set up on facebook if you want to contribute your thoughts http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002465623557&sk=wall

Lucas was a great contributor to Touch in Scotland and Europe in his role as FIT Director of Referees and Europe's no.1 ref. He had put a huge amount of effort into getting the Touch Europe referees ready for the Touch World Cup 2011 and the Scottish Touch Association intend to formally commemorate Lucas at the event.

A transcript of the eulogy given about Lucas at evening chapel on Sunday night at Fettes College is available here:

All of us fortunate enough to know him will have our own memories of Lucas.

Our thoughts are with his family at this time. He will be sadly missed.
