UPDATE: Please help us support the Barteau Duggins family. In late June Barry sustained a heart attack and had two stents placed. In the process of recovery, it was determined that he had a tear at the base of his heart. He underwent surgery for the tear, but needed further treatment that was not available in Fresno.

He was airlifted to Cedar Sinai hospital in Southern California in early July. It was determined during that hospitalization that Barry had sustained a significant stroke and despite being weaned off of sedation, he never regained consciousness. The family made the difficult decision to take Barry off of life support. Barry passed surrounded by family on Sunday, July 6. His family have been overwhelmed by the incredible generosity of their family and friends. They are uplifted by all of your prayers and this wonderful outreach of love.

At this difficult time, in spite of good insurance, they are still managing unexpected medical expenses. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated.
