A routine Sunday at Richmond Road Baptist Church in Lexington, Kentucky, turned deadly when a 47-year-old man entered the fellowship hall looking for one of Beverly Gumm’s daughters. Beverly, 72, was preparing lunch with another daughter when the man—later identified as Guy House—was told the woman he sought was not there. Beverly initially dodged a bullet but was struck in the chest and killed.

The gunman then went outside and shot Beverly’s 32-year-old daughter, Christina Combs, who also died. Two men were wounded: Beverly’s husband and the church’s longtime pastor, Jerry Gumm, and Christina’s husband, Randy Combs, was injured as well. Earlier that day the assailant had shot a Kentucky State Police trooper during a traffic stop near Blue Grass Airport, carjacked a vehicle, and driven to the church; he was shot and killed by responding officers at the scene. Family members said the gunman had a history of mental health and drug issues. Beverly is remembered as a devoted wife, mother of eight, and active church member known for her kindness and faith.
