ROSE AND DAVE LUCAS, of Farmingville, were wed Jan. 14, 1984, before a judge in Hauppauge. Planning a wedding was too crazy for them, so they decided to elope. They had met as teens in September 1980. They moved into an apartment in Deer Park in 1984, where their son was born. They later moved to Ronkonkoma, where their daughter was born. They have four wonderful grandchildren. They celebrated with a family trip to Disney.
