To the Schuppe Family--
I am praying for all of you. You are all such a testimony and even in this time of loss and grief you have ministered so much to me and so many. Jonathan was so loved and will always be loved and remembered. He was a blessing to every person who was blessed to know him. A godly young man so passionate about God and His Word the way Jonathan was is very rare and Jonathan is one of a kind. We will have him in our hearts forever.
The service was such a tribute to him, and I thank you all for sharing your hearts.
God bless you all.
In Christ's Love,
Star

Dear Prof. and Mrs. Schuppe and family,
I'll never forget the many times you had me into your home and let me enjoy fun times with your family while I was a student at WBC. How good it is to know that our God is faithful, that He "heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3). My wife Ruthie (Boger) and I will be praying for all of you.
In Christ's love,

Doug and I were so grieved when we received the sad news, and have prayed for peace and strength ever since. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." (Psalm 30:5) You and your family are so loved by so many. May this thought encourage your hearts! Doug & Sue Redman

Dear Jim, Martha, Joe, Becca, Jenifer, and family. When I heard the news this morning at the end of our church service, a thousand things went through my mind. I felt weak and a little faint. Knowing the grief of loosing a son first hand, I will be praying for you all with all my heart and with all the faith that I have. For Joe, I don't know what to say except, look toward heaven. For Martha, I remember driving you and Jonathan in my Ramcharger in the blizzard to deliver papers while Jim was in Bulgaria. I remember your quiet, hardworking son. May God's Peace find you all as you treasure all your good memories.
Your friend
