In loving memories of my wonderful father
James Butler Estes Jr. (Jim)

As I sit here thinking of the memories of my dad I go back to the day that he look at me in the hospital and said Jean will you take me home and take care of me. It was a honor to do that.Dad meant so much to me. I enjoyed every moment I got to spend with him.Daddy did not get out and go places because of his nerves.The last 2 months before he died he enjoyed getting out as long as I was driving his sister...

Growing up with Uncle Jim living on top of the hill was a great time in life. Without him there would have never been my favorite game, Hush mouth. A few years ago i had the chance to visit Uncle Jim with my family ( Brenda, Kayli,and Krystin ) and got to tell him that i love him. God bless Uncle Jim.

Jiimmy was a very nice sweet and special man (great uncle)and one time when we were going up the hill to get to his house he would always give me about 2 or 3 crackers. Im really going to miss the things that he did. When he was at his house sick i would come and see him every day.I stay there for afew hours talking to him and praying for him. All the memerys that we had together i loved him and am still praying for him that God will take good care of him in heaven because he is so special.

Jimmy was one of the best uncles anyone could ever have!!! Jimmy always seem to keep me in line when I was small and he was sooo gentle at it to. My thoughts and Prayers will always be with you. You are like more like my sisters and brothers to me instead of cousins, and I Love you dearly!!!GOD will be with you every step of the way. Jimmy is rejoicing with his Lord and Savior now and that is the best comfort we all can ask for.I will always Love him and miss hearing him calling me SOOZE. GOD...

I was reading some of the suggested entries that this website has; and I noticed a lot that it says May God Bless your family in this time; God definitely bless us with my Papa. He was a Sweet sweet man, and we will miss him. I'm glad that he is living with Jesus, and one day soon I'll get to see him again:)

May your memories comfort and give you strength. Doran Blane's Son
