Family of Estelle Wilbourn...
She was my elder, maybe I should have called her Mrs. Wilbourn, but I called her Estelle, because I felt comfortable with that. I got to know her a little bit when she and some of the other ladies at Kingsland came home with me for potluck. I loved her immediately. I will always remember her loving personality. Thank God for Estelle and her influence in many lives.

Roger and Calvin your mom was one of the most precious ladies i have ever known, she taught all my children growing up in church and myself as a teacher in school.What a blessed example of christian love and devotion. Not to mention all the cookies and crafts she made and gave away to those she loved. I know GOD has a special crown in heaven for her.
