Sad day for the Stoots' family


Well we received a phone call this morning that Kevin's grandfather, affectionately known as Poppy to the boys, passed away this morning. While we are rejoicing that he is with the Lord, we are saddened that he is not with us anymore, but what great hope that we have in knowing that we will see him again one day! He lived a fulfilled 92 years and to hear his stories about the wars, being in the service, and life in his younger days were amazing. And, we'll never forget the times that we were able to worship with him at church and hear him sing! Here is the last picture that we have of him and the boys. I always made sure that I took lots of pictures of the boys with him so that they would be able to remember him! Please be in prayer for Kevin as he travels to Marion, VA tomorrow for the wake & funeral. The boys and I won't be able to make the trip so we'll be without Kevin for a few nights.
