Jef was born August 9, 1951 in Warren to Claude “Dink” and Nan (Warner) Luvison, who survive him of Youngsville.   Jef was a member of the Youngsville American Legion  Post #658 and the Sugar Grove AmVets Club #50 and was a lifetime member of the NRA.  He was drafted into the US Army and served in Germany until becoming a partner with his father and brother in the Roger Luvison and Son Construction Company.  Jef loved rabbit and deer hunting, gardening and watching Fox News as he was a staunch conservative republican.
