EaglesRest is the Family Home for Mike and Melanie White and their two sons, Robert and Stephen, JudyWhite Wilson and her two daughters, Michelle and Stephanie, Bob and KateWhite and Eunice Williams. Eunice and her deceased husband Garfied arethe parents of Kate White. Bob and Kate White are the parents of threechildren, Mike, Steve and Judy. Steve and his wife Courtney live acrosstown in Alcoa. Judy's deceased husband and father of Michelle andStephanie was Mark R. Wilson, who was called home to be with the Lord in1996. Mark's death was caused by Renal Cell Cancer.
It is out of the life changing tragedy of death to both Mark and Garfield that EaglesRest was born. Our family has always done everything together and it is only natural that we, the family would choose to build on the family that the Lord has allowed to remain here until He comes for us or we go to Him in our parting.
Land was purchased for EaglesRest in the Spring of 1997 and the foundation was dug in December of 1997. Mike designed the house and Bob acted as the general contractor for EaglesRest. Bob had open heart surgery in late summer of 1997. But by December, Bob was on the job supervising the building of EagleRest. In late July of 1998, just 8 months later, Bob and Kate sold their home and were the first residents of EaglesRest. Still far from complete, EaglesRest made its transition from house to home to our family. On October 2, 1998, the rest of the family slept in the house for the first time and this day marked the official designation as EaglesRest, the home of Mike,Melanie, Robert, Stephen, Judy, Michelle, Stephanie, Bob, Kate and Eunice. On July 1, 2003, Eunice Williams was called home to Heaven to join her husband Garfield. We who have been left behind live in confidence that one day we will join her, Garfield and Mark in the sky when our Lord Jesus Christ comes to carry us Home. Until that time, as a family we seek Honor our Lord Jesus Christ in all we do.
