NICHOLAS GUMP Obituary

NICHOLAS D. GUMP, 38, of Churubusco, passed away on Saturday, Jan. 13, 2018, at his home. Nick loved his children. They liked Friday nights when they would watch MacGyver and Hawaii 5-0 and enjoy snacks together. His son Tyler will remember his dad watching him play football and going back to the park to watch him play baseball. Raegan will remember him watching her dance and making slime and telling silly jokes. Surviving are son, Tyler Gump; daughter, Raegan Gump; parents, John and Annette Gump; sister, Laura (Chris) Cook; brothers, Adam (Jenn Schott) Gump and Bret Gump; many aunts and uncles and several cousins; and his loyal dog, Piper. Service is 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2018, at at Pine Hills Church, Fort Wayne, with calling from 5 to 7 p.m. Memorials to the Nicholas Gump Children's Education Fund.

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Nick's family, sorry for your loss. It is tragic to lose one so young, but Jeremiah 29:11 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, may that bring you comfort at this difficult time.
