I am reaching out today with difficult news. Rhonda (mom) has passed away due to lower GI tract complications. While in Mexico, Rhonda became weak and wasn’t feeling well. Upon return to the United States for their summer trip, her close friend noted her color was not good and recommended she go to urgent care to get checked out. Upon arrival, it was determined she was very low on blood. After admitting her to ICU and stabilizing her with several units of blood, the doctors performed a scope and determined Rhonda had a couple of small ulcers and one large one in the opening of the small intestine. The doctors provided several prescriptions and sent her home to rest and recuperate. During the night on Wednesday/early Thursday morning, Rhonda passed away. According to the medical examiner, it appears something in her GI tract ruptured.
This was all very unexpected. God had spoken to Richard and Rhonda regarding their ministry and the things He has planned for Mexico. We don’t understand all God has allowed, but we do know that He is sovereign, He is in control, and we trust Him beyond measure—even when it hurts as much as it does right now.
We will continue to provide ministry updates in the coming months as God provides direction for Richard (dad) and for the ministry. In the meanwhile, if you are local and would like to attend the services, they will be at:
EverRest Funeral Home and Chapel
1783 E Keating Avenue
Muskegon, MI 49442
