Lukas Allen Christofferson

STOUGHTON-Lukas Christofferson, age 19, of Stoughton, passed away on Thursday, April 12, 2018, at Mercy Hospital surrounded by family and friends from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident. He was born on June 28, 1998, in Madison, Wis., the son of Robert "Bob" and Linda Christofferson. Lukas graduated from Stoughton High School in 2016. He was a member of the cross country and track teams and also enjoyed playing ultimate Frisbee. Lukas worked as a manager at Valvoline Instant Oil Change. He was an active member of Boy Scouts and as a camp counselor he left a lasting impression on countless people with his purely positive outlook, infectious energy and enthusiasm. Lukas would drop everything to help out a friend. He was a jokester and knew how to make everyone laugh with his silly side and mischievous smile. That smile was the light of so many lives, leaving a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to have known him. Lukas is survived by his loving parents, Bob and Linda Christofferson; sister, Kathryn; brother, Joshua (Alecia) Kraut; nephews, Xavier and Joshua Jr.; paternal grandfather, Wayne Christofferson; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Maurice and Suzanne Gahlman; and paternal grandmother, Agnes Christofferson. A celebration of life will be held at FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH, 310 East Washington St., Stoughton, at 7 p.m on Tuesday, April 17, 2018, with the Rev. Bill Lehman presiding. Visitation will be held at the church from 4 p.m. until the time of the service on Tuesday. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund will be established in Lukas' name to help youth in the Stoughton community through First Lutheran Church. Online condolences may be made at www.gundersonfh.com.
