A 92-year-old veteran will be evicted from the house he built after his daughter rejected an offer to buy the home for above market value.
In February, John "Jack" Potter's daughter served notice to evict him from the home he built in Zaleski, Ohio, 56 years ago. An appeal court determined the eviction would stand.
Janice Cotrill allegedly used her power of attorney privileges to transfer the deed of the home to her name.
Cotrill hasn't spoken to media about the situation.
Potter's granddaughter, Jaclyn Fraley, went online to tell his story and solicit money to buy back the home and raised $139,603.
An appraisal valued the home at $47,000 plus land worth $2,830 and an offer was made, ABCNews reported. Cottrill rejected the offer with a counter-offer of $85,000 plus legal fees.
A second offer of $60,005.23 was rejected outright, ABCNews reported siting court documents that state "They find the offer unacceptable and decline the same."
Fraley is considering housing options for Potter, a Second World War veteran. The donations haven't been touched and she told ABCNews she will be transparent about where the money goes.
Potter wants to stay in Zaleski, where he was once mayor, to be close to friends and his disabled son.
"For me, the hardest part in all this is what it's going to do to him: taking a 92-year-old man and forcing him to leave his home. I was trying to keep it so he could have a calm, quiet end of life. His health is weaker," Fraley told ABCNews.
The final eviction hearing is set for June 26.
