Journal entry by donna schwerin

My last entry must have been written just hours before Rich went to his Glorious reward in heaven. Karl and Shane ‘sent me to my room’ for some rest while they covered sitting with their dad. At about 3:00 a.m. he left us for Glory. For those who may not know, he had been serving St John’s of Baytown for the last year and a half in a semi-retirement call. We had been here from 1985 to 1995, and following calls to Trinity in St. Paul and Crown of Life in W. St Paul we returned to this dedicated little community. 
To God be the Glory; great things He has done!
