James Stephen Shuey

James Stephen Shuey passed peacefully surrounded by family on October, 7th 2024. After weeks of struggling with complications from a bone marrow transplant needed to treat a rare genetic bone disease, James passed gently into the arms of Jesus. During his five short months here on earth he touched many lives and was deeply loved by family and friends.

He was the beloved son of Karl and Stephanie Shuey; dear maternal grandson of Lori Scrobe and the late Stephen Scrobe; paternal grandson of John Shuey (Karen), and Bonnie Jones (Jim); cherished great grandson of Dave and Mary Ellen Shuey, and Betty Gerlach and the late James “Jim” Gerlach; loving nephew of William Scrobe, Michael Scrobe, Marykate Scrobe, and Kurt Shuey (Faith Haskies).
