Jo Ann’s Story

Site created on April 23, 2021

Rich Shugert has been battling kidney cancer for almost 4 years. Through several types of treatments and because of God's grace, he has confounded our oncologist and many others by being with us as long as he has.We have tried new treatments and some old standbys, but after visiting with the oncologist last week, we decided our next step is hospice. Please pray for God's continued grace for Rich and Jo Ann during this time.

Rich is home in the arms of Jesus.  It was so quick, but so peaceful.  Thank you all so much for the prayer and support over the last four years.  We have been blessed beyond measure.
