I was so blessed to have 24 years with him. I was so blessed to be so close with my grandpa, I know there are a lot of people in the world that aren't close with their grandparents, or their grandparents passed away when they were young, but I was soo blessed to have him for so long. I have so many memories with my grampie, but above all, the thing that I love the most about him is that Grampie was an amazing man of God. Always seeking the King and the Kingdom. He was a man of great example and legacy. No matter where he went, he would always ask someone this question: "Do you have Jesus in your heart?" He would then go into sharing the gospel with them. He has been such a forerunner in our family, laying a strong foundation for us to stand on, and not only to stand on, but to build on.
Eric Adney as I know him, in his physical body is no longer with me here, but he is in the presence of his King, Jesus. He is walking the streets of gold, walker-free!! Based on the cards, messages and emails we have received, I can only imagine how many jewels he has in his crown because of his obedience to the Lord here on earth.
My heart is broken tonight because I have a void in my life here on earth, but at the same time, I have so much joy and hope because of the faith that grampie had in the Lord, and because of the faith I have in the Lord... because of that faith and belief we both had/have in the Lord, we will see each other again! That is a promise of the cross!!
I love you Grampie. You will forever be in my heart and memories.
