After a courageous battle with cancer, our beloved husband and father, Rich Jessup, has gone home to be with Jesus.

Rich was a man who touched countless lives with his kindness, strength, and unwavering love. He carried a light that brought comfort, laughter, and encouragement to so many, and his impact will never be forgotten.

While our hearts ache deeply, we find peace in knowing that he is now with Jesus—whole, healed, and in perfect peace. This promise gives us hope even in the midst of unimaginable sorrow.

“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?” — John 14:2 (NIV)

As a family, we are walking through this season of loss and are continuing this GoFundMe to help ease the burden of outstanding medical bills, funeral expenses, and the costs associated with settling his estate.

We are deeply grateful for every prayer, kind word, and act of generosity. Your support means more to us than we can fully express.

We will carry his legacy in our hearts forever. Until we meet again.

— The Jessup Family
