Esther I miss you so much. My heart aches for the laughter we shared and the conversations that only sisters could have. I thank GOD for putting you in the life of my children as an aunt and a second mother. I know you are watching over them when they are away from me and baby Khloe see you in her dreams. I cry daily for your existance and I pray daily for your peace.

From dance recitals and school patrol, to Vacation Bible school and the marching band - my cherished childhood memories would not be the same without Esther Mae in them. To the entire Chapman family - I love you all and I thank God for allowing our families to meet and become friends! Your daughter will always hold a special place in my heart. She had so much courage and I admired the woman my friend grew up to be! I Praise God for her life and I know He is there for YOU now and always!

To the Chapman Family: Esther was my assistant in Disabled Services at FCCJ back in the 90's. She had a strong spirit and blessed many people with her kind, generous heart. The world has lost a true angel, but God has claimed the best one for His Kingdom. I love you Esther!

Annette and Cecil, I was there when you brought her home from the hospital and watched her grow up with Leona and my daughter Toni. I can not find the words to express how I feel. Just hold onto God's unchanging hand and he will certainly carry you through this rough time.
Remember, I love you and will see you soon.

To The Chapman Family,
Words can not express our condolences to your family. Esther was a very patient, soft spoken, sweet kind young lady from my view. She worked faithfully in the nursery at the Potter's House and attended to our son. She loved the kids and had a big heart for those children and she don't even have any of her own. I know your hearts are heavy but I also know that God is a heavy load carrier. Keep The Faith, Varian, Patricia, and lil Varian Guess.

The word of God declares..To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Mrs. Chapman and I would talk many times about Esther faith in the Lord and love for the Lord. I am certain if we could see her now...we would see her beautiful smile filled with great joy. The family has my deepest sympathy and prayers.Esther has finished her fight kept the faith and is now resting safely in the Masters arms. May God bless and keep you.

To my family...
My prayers go out to you during this difficult time that God will grant you with a peace that surpasses all understanding. I know if our "loving" Esther would have sustained her life, she would still be here today. However, God's love is greater and knows best. May you find comfort in the memories that were created by each of you throughout the years. Just know that I am here for you spiritually and naturally so. So on behalf of me, my wife and children, please know that we love you all and will keep you lifted up in our prayers and high thoughts.
Prayerfully and lovingly submitted,
Eld. Andrew D. Williams, Sr. & Family
