Our Heavenly Guests
Bobby "Grampalamp" Porché
Grandfather of the Groom
We honor the memory of Bobby’s grandfather, the cherished patriarch whose strength, wisdom, and love shaped the foundation of their family. Our groom proudly carries his name and legacy forward, stepping into his footsteps as the next leader of their family.
Fields G. Earnest
Grandfather of Bride
We honor Fields Earnest, lovingly known as Papa Earnest, the bride’s devoted grandfather. He was a man fiercely dedicated to his family, a steady problem solver, and a true ride-or-die spirit who showed up without hesitation whenever he was needed. He loved Jaela deeply and made it his mission to support her in every way he could, always finding a way to make things happen. His loyalty, strength, and unwavering presence will forever be remembered and cherished.
Bobby "Papa B" Hutchins
Grandfather of Bride
We honor Papa B, who entered Jaela’s life at age eight and became a steady, loving grandfather, known for being a man of few words but full of wisdom. He taught her discernment and the importance of being present for family, and even tried to teach her to fish, although that skill did not stick nearly as well as the lessons that truly mattered.
Linda "Elder Mom" Calloway
Grandmother of the Bride
We honor the memory of Linda Calloway, the bride’s beloved grandmother and the most heartbreaking loss of Jaela’s life. Linda was an author, a prophet, a teacher, and a radiant source of wisdom whose presence shaped everyone around her. She poured faith into Jaela from a young age, teaching her how to follow God and helping her build a personal relationship with Him that remains the foundation of her life today. She meant the world to Jaela and her love continues to guide, protect, and inspire. In her honor, Jaela will always dance, celebrating life just as her grandmother so joyfully did.
