Robert White Wolf Lujan - in memoriam

posted in Friends |

Robert White Wolf Lujan, age 52, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, Jan. 14, 2024. He was born March 30, 1952, the son of Jose and Mary (Lujan) Dominguez, in Santa Fe, N.M. Robert spent his childhood in Santa Fe and was very active in sports. He was a Vietnam veteran who worked to heal himself from the scars of war.  Robert’s willingness to share the Ojibway spiritual tradition that he practiced was an inspiration in the healing journeys for others.  This teaching of spirituality is one of Robert’s legacies to his two beloved children, Gabriel and Grace.  Robert worked as a drug and alcohol counselor within the criminal justice and mental health system for many years. His service work and compassion in the recovery community will never be forgotten. Robert loved his family very much and is survived by his wife, Jenny Lujan of Waunakee; a son, Gabriel Lujan, and a daughter, Grace Lujan, both at home in Waunakee; two sisters, Berna Dominguez of Santa Fe, N.M., and Linda (Jesus) Ranscon, of Sante Fe, N.M.; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother, Dan Lujan.

Today in Wisconsin many of us are weeping.

    Robert was a great human being, I always remember him pulling his long hair back and smiling and asking me about a mutual friend, I went to a few sweats, with Robert, we both shared Native beliefs, I am Hochunk, from Black river Falls. I had a vision once in his lodge ceremony, and he would ask me questions on some siox dialect. I miss him, he was an inspiration to me on a recovery level, professional level, and more deeply on a native level. It always felt good to sit in a meeting with him and know their was another skin present.I am grateful I met him.
