Carl C. Luchetti Jr., a resident of West Wyoming, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, April 30, 2019, at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Township.

His loving wife is Joan E. (Bepersti) Luchetti. Together, Carl and Joan celebrated their 61^st wedding anniversary on December 26^th.

Born on December 24, 1937, in Exeter, Carl was one of four children born to the late Carl Luchetti Sr. and Angela (Pisano) Luchetti.

Raised in Exeter, Carl was a graduate of the former Exeter High School, Class of 1955. Following high school, he went on to attend the University of Scranton where in 1959 he acquired his Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics.

A proud veteran, Carl honorably served his country for nearly ten years in both the United States Army and the United States Army Reserves.

Prior to his retirement in 2000, Carl was the owner and operator of Luchetti Sales and Service, Inc., Exeter, a Jeep dealership.

Carl was a longtime member of Saint Monica’s Parish, Our Lady of Sorrows Church, West Wyoming.

An avid hunter and outdoorsman, Carl loved spending time at his farm in Franklin Township. He was a member of the National Rifle Association and the American Trapshooter Association. His passion for trapshooting led him to be the PA State Singles Champion in 1968, the PA State High Overall Champion in 1981, and the PA State Doubles Champion in 1983. He was also a lifelong fan of Notre Dame Football and the New York Yankees.

Carl will be best remembered for the love and devotion he had for his family. His grandchildren were the light of his life and he reveled in all of their accomplishments. His presence will be deeply missed by all those who knew and loved him.
