The family moved to Colorado in 1923 and to Boulder in 1934. He graduated from Boulder High School in 1937, attended the University of Colorado, and joined Sigma Chi.

Lu married Eileen Stockdale March 10, 1941. They met when Eileen was living at the Nuttall’s hotel, the Monticello. Eileen, who was the bookkeeper at Valentine’s Hardware, became a regular at Lu’s bowling alley. Lu enlisted in 1942, serving as 1st Lieutenant in the 1781st Ordinance of the Army, assigned to the Air Force.

Lu enjoyed working with his hands and doing things for himself. In 1948, Lu built the home where his family has resided ever since. With the help of his sons, he built Mapleton (1960) and Orchard Mobile Home Parks (1962).

Lu was a member of the Elks Lodge, the Shrine, and Boulder Country Club. He served on the Boulder Planning Board. Lu had a broad smile, a keen sense of humor, and a genuine interest in people.
