91-year-old Man Raises Money To Prevent Eviction By Daughter by bellong: 7:41am On May 16, 2013
A 91-year-old man wants to stop his daughter from evicting him from the home he built 56 years ago in Zaleski, Ohio, a small community south of Columbus.
In 2004, John Potter and his wife, who has since died, gave the general power of attorney to his daughter for future matters if they declined in health, including to take care of her autistic adult brother, now 63.
But unbeknownst to Potter, his daughter Janice Cottrill eventually used that power to convey the deed to the one-story home to herself. In 2010, Potter said he learned of the deed transfer and switched power of attorney to his granddaughter, Jaclyn Fraley, now 35.
Potter, a World War II veteran and retired train dispatcher for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, sued to get the home back, arguing that his daughter had transferred the deed to herself illegally because those with the power of attorney are not permitted to transfer assets to themselves from the estate they oversee.
Potter won in Vinton County Court, but an appeals court ruled last year that the statute of limitations of four years had passed on the accusation of fraud and thus the deed could not be handed back to Potter.
Early this year, his daughter and her husband sent Potter an eviction notice, saying they had terminated his "existing lease." An eviction hearing will take place on June 12, during which the judge will have no choice but to evict Potter, Fraley told ABC News.
When asked how he feels about being evicted by his daughter and son-in-law, Potter was at a loss for words.
"I just cannot believe my daughter would ever do anything like that to me," he said.
Janice Cottrill declined to comment.
"The case is currently pending in the Vinton County Court and we will let the court decide the issues," said Lorene Johnston, an attorney for Cottrill.

The daughter is so wicked. How she can do that to a 91 year old man is beyond me. stories like this don't surprise me though. Things like this happen all the time all around the world. Where are those Nigerians who claim all babies are a blessing from God? Janice Cottrill was once a cute innocent baby too born to John Potter and his late wife. Now, see how she has grown up to become a thorn in her old father's flesh.

And then most Nigerians will question why some married couples intentionally choose not to have any children as if having children will guarantee that they will take care of you in old age. We are in the last days now and my bible tells me that parents will turn against their children and children against their parents. See below:

Matthew 10:21 (NIV)
"Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death."

So let's stay prayerful because end times are definitely here. The only person we should trust is God because human beings can betray us any minute. After all, the heart of man (human beings) is desperately wicked. Who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9).
