Today around 500pm, heaven received it's newest angel. Gary Darrell Poteet Sr. , aka PaPaw Gary, completed his journey home. He fought hard since his diagnosis over 2 years ago. He wanted his family and friends to be at his house for Thanksgiving and he got his wish. He was surrounded by those he loved and it was so peaceful. We are all going to miss him so much but he is in a better place. He is no longer sick....he is whole again!!!
When Logan found out that I was going to PaPaw's house today, he sent one of his favorite stuffed animals that he had kissed and hugged and wanted him to have it. Logan's little dinosaur spent the day tucked under PaPaw's arm. I guess that was his little way of sending his love to PaPaw and letting him know that he was there.
Please continue to pray for our family. The days ahead will be some of the hardest as we go over arrangements and begin to clean and go through the things in his house. We are so happy for PaPaw. He is in a place that many of us long to be someday. It's hard for the ones left behind but we know we will meet again one day.
