Chuck Shipton

In loving memory of Chuck Shipton

Nine years ago, we lost our son, Chuck Shipton, in an auto accident just a mile from home.

As we talked with our friends last night, we stated how at times it feels like just yesterday that he was home and joking with his mother.

Choch, as he was called, by family and friends, always seemed to bring joy to any situation.

He would remind me, the Lord said to Put on the full armor of God so that you take your stand against the devil's schemes.

Stand your ground, stand firm with the belt of truth, and the breastplate of righteousness in place, take up the shield of faith.

Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God.

And pray in the Spirit with prayers and requests.

Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me, to make known the gospel, to be an ambassador.

Choch is missed by his sisters, Carrie and Brandy, his friends, and his passing has left a permanent hole in the hearts of his parents.
