Here we are, seven years later, and I miss you just as much today as I did the day you left us and went to your heavenly home. My heart aches so much. Dad joined you last year on Mother's Day, May 10th, 2020. Now you two are finally together again. You both are free from pain and suffering. I can imagine how wonderful it must be for you two. But for me, the heartbreak never ends. I miss you both so horribly bad. There are no words to describe the loss I feel. But the one thing that brings me comfort and peace is knowing we will all be together again one day soon. Keep watch over us. I know you are always with me; I feel you all around me. God bless you, Mamaw Esther. You're forever in my heart. I love you and miss you dearly.

Esther, if you were here with me just now I would tell you these things. You welcomed me into your family when I was 16. You included me in your fun get togethers and activities all along as if I was really your niece. My own aunts lived in Arizona, Virginia and Connecticut and I never really got to know them. I learned from YOU how to be a good aunt. It is fortunate because I have so many nieces and nephews!! You were always loving, forgiving, kind, caring, supportive and simply wonderful to me. I love you and will never forget how fun you were to be with...how much you "shaped" me. Your courage and strength has always amazed me. Your never ending faith and love has held me up many times. I love you and I will not forget.

To Esther's family: We heard about Esther's passing just today. My Daughter Lisa's Mother In Law Jane Barker (Byron) was at our home tonight and she asked if we knew where Esther was living. Jane said Esther was a wonderful person and she had lost track of her many, many years ago. Scott called John Pirtle and we were told she had just passed away a week ago. Our prayers and thoughts go out to the family.

Esther is sadly missed by everyone that was lucky enough to have been a part of her life. I will miss seeing her big smile when I would take Emmett to see her. She and Emmett had become very close in the last Two years He looked forward to seeing his mammaw when he was here. I think her Passing will only be made easy by knowing that she is in a better place and she's not in pain any more. I pray That Sean came and took her hand and led her to Heaven At the end. I know she will be looking down and watching over Emmett & Christi and Ed and Jim.

Great Aunt Esther was such a sweet woman. It just doesn't seem that long ago when I was running around her yard sale terrorizing my cousins and breaking stuff. I celebrate your return home, Esther. Now you are free and joy is in infinite abundance. This isn't goodbye but see you soon.

Mom, I already miss you more than words can describe; your sheepish grin, your loving and caring ways. At the same time, I am happy for you. You finally are going home to be with our Lord, along with Dad (Cliff), grandma and grandpa, and all the rest of the family and friends that preceded you. No more pain, agony, and sorrow. Just peace and joy. Just know I love you and will miss you dearly. I will join you with great joy when my time has come. Goodbye for now Mom.

I wouldn't be who I am today if not for the love and support of this wonderful woman. She welcomed me with open arms and gave me time to discover who I was. I never could have repaid her for the many ways she helped me or the unconditional love she so easily gave from her beautiful heart. I will always regret being so far away in her final days. I wish she'd had the chance to meet her great granddaughter. I know this would have meant the world to her and I know she was trying to hang on. I can only hope she is at peace. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

Thinking of you Christi, and your whole family during this very difficult time. Your in my thought and prayers. Your Mammaw was surely a very wonderful person, because you are, and her wonderful spirit reflects in you.

There are not enough words to describe the heartbreak I feel. There is a huge hole in my heart from your passing. You always stood beside me, even when others turned their backs on me. You were one of my biggest supporters and biggest fan. I cannot tell you just how much I miss you, Mamaw. I am just blessed to have had you in my life, and for as long as I did. Some people don't get the chance to know their grandparents like I did you.
I am so honored to have been there with you as you took your last breath on earth. I hope I gave you great comfort and allowed you to pass feeling very loved. I now have a sense of closure others don't. And I am so thankful to have spent your last hours with you. You blessed me more than you will ever know.
Emmett will miss you also. I am just thankful he got to see you and spend time with you. I will never let him forget you.
In closing, like I said earlier, there are no words to describe the sorrow I feel. I miss you so much already and I hope you know just how loved you were and still are.
FOREVER YOU REMAIN IN MY HEART! I love you mamaw!

For my Mamaw....My biggest fan, the brightest star in our family. Now you may shine even brighter in Heaven. I miss you so much! May you watch over us in Heaven as you did on Earth. I love you and I am at peace because you are in Heaven and I know you are happy there. Rest in peace, my dear mamaw. <3 I love you!
