I probably would have kept it too in his position XD You were really lucky to have such a supportive family, and I guess it's also great to have genuine friendships with gallery owners/other people that can help you along the way :D
I wish I had kept a few more paintings to myself! But supportive friends and family are much more important and I feel privileged, that I always had that in my life.
