My brother Anthony i called Etes! I met through a mutual friend. Me being a husler many years ago in the 757, i am not from there but relocated there, of course i had my challenges. Anthony was more than a friend to me. When i needed help he was always there for me. He was such a beautiful being and an even more beautiful soul/spirit! He was truly placed on my path to assist me along the way. If i needed a place to stay he would give me the keys to his apartment and say stay as long as you like! If i needed a ride , Estes would take me anywhere. He showed so much love to me and my spiritual wife, the love that you wish you could get from your birth family. The creator put Estes on my path so that i could experience a real family and he was that to me. I Love him dearly and he will always be in my heart. I just got off the phone with my spiritual wife and we were talking about the good ole days and i decided to look up my brother today and i found this. I could always count and depend on my brother Estes. I am sad that i found this but i understand the life cycle as Estes has moved on to another realm or dimension. True Light is within. I love you always brother Estes as you have been missed and will be missed.

Sincerly Yours,
Carlos

To the entire Estes family, I give my condolences. Growing up in Lyndon Circle are memories that I will always have in my heart. Lisa was my best friend. We were in-separable. We were salt and pepper. Anthony along with my sister Renee’ was the neighborhood stylist. They knew how to dress, dance and even braid all the latest hair styles. Remember when they won the best dance contest at the old school. When Lisa hair got braided so did mine. Anthony you will truly be missed. Many years ago, but this is the way I'm going to remember him and the family. May God bless you and give you the strength to continue on this journey called life.

"Someone Near to Me Has Died"

Eternal Spirit, someone very near and dear to me has passed on into the larger life and I stand bewildered, alone, and sadly stricken. .

In my grief I bring thee my words of gratitude for all the rich gifts that the departed one has brought to my life

The bond of mutual confidence and understanding

The gift of fellowship in shared tasks and unrealized ambitions
The joy that come when one can be sure that someone knows him to the depths and trusts him completely.

Grant me now, my Lord, the courage to carry on in the spirit the one departed has bestowed upon my life.

Save me from weak complaint and futile regrets.

Enable me to build well upon the legacy of gracious memories remaining to me.

Give me the power to carry to fulfillment the joint undertakings of our hearts.

Empower me to think and act and grow in harmony with the purposes and spirit which my departed loved one would approve and inspire. Thus, may I be true to the memory of the one who has passed on.
Amen

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor heights, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. .
Romans 8: 38, 39
