Papa's Entrance to Heaven

On the evening of January 28, 2014, our lives changed forever. Sweet Papa was welcomed into Heaven with open arms. We had no idea that he would be called home that night, but we are so thankful for the 70 years he spent here on this earth! Lots of tears were shed, but we also filled the room with lots of Papa/Bobby stories that kept us in good spirits. We are so thankful for the friends and family that showed up and loved on us during this sad time. The community of Clarksdale came together and wrapped our family with love and support when we needed it most! I knew that most of that time would be a blur for us, so I wanted to make sure we had pictures to remember!

Beautiful arrangement on the casket and Papa holding on to his CIA hat with is pack of M&M's in his pocket!
