We’re coming together to support our friend and fellow Sundt employee-owner, Jesus Rios, who recently suffered a serious and unexpected brain aneurysm. This has been a life-changing event, and one that has left Jesus facing not only a long physical recovery, but also significant emotional and financial challenges.

Jesus has been a dedicated Sundt employee-owner for over a decade. In that time, he’s earned the respect and appreciation of everyone he’s worked with — not just for his hard work, but for his kindness, quiet determination, and unwavering dependability. He’s the type of guy that will answer your call any day of the week and is ready to get to work when the project needs him.

After being rushed to the hospital, Jesus underwent emergency treatment and is now in stable condition. However, his recovery will be long and uncertain, involving extensive rehabilitation and therapy.

Tragically, Jesus also experienced a personal loss not long before this medical crisis — his wife passed away, leaving him without his closest companion. To make matters even more difficult, his brother Antonio is the only family member he has here in the United States. Antonio is doing everything he can to be by his side, but the emotional and financial weight is heavy.

Why We’re Raising Funds

This GoFundMe has been set up to help Jesus and his family cover critical expenses, including:

Hospital bills and ongoing medical care

Rehabilitation and therapy

Daily living costs while Jesus is unable to work

Long-term support needs during recovery

If you’ve had the privilege of working with Jesus, you know the kind of person he is — quiet, strong, and always willing to lend a hand. Now it’s our turn to support him.

Whether you can give financially or simply share this campaign and keep Jesus in your prayers, it all makes a difference.

Let’s show Jesus that his Sundt family stands with him.

With heartfelt thanks,

Jose Lugo
