Estill is a GREAT MAN and he and my Father were great friends! Every time he would visit with my Dad and I, or we would go to visit with him, he was AWAYS laughing, being as special as only he could be, and would make us laugh and put a smile on both of our faces! One of my fondest memories is when he was on the basketball court supporting our Logan Wildcats, and firing up our fans, in his “SUPER CAT” outfit during the state basketball championships in Morgantown! THAT was TRULY OUTSTANDING! May GOD bless you and your family Estill! I'm sure that both Dad and you are having a BLAST together in Heaven right now! I sure do miss you so much already! GOD Bless you my (Our!) friend!!!

I live in Hickory, NC and sometimes it was hard to find someone to cut my moms grass in Pine Creek . Estill came and started cutting it even at his age. He had such a large heart. I would call him from time to time and when I visited home to thank him.

So sorry too learn of my buddy's passing. I grew up with him. All those years from Logan Bowling Center when I was just a child too spending at least two nights a week for years in the other establishments we patronized. And later in the years from him visiting my home and doing things with my own children when they were little. Many many great memories with this man. RIP my great friend.

Estil was a beloved member of our centennial graduating class (LHS 1963). Estil never met a stranger and was known to most everyone in school. He was always upbeat and willing to befriend others. He had his own inimitable personality that endeared him to anyone who knew him. His memory will endure and he'll still bring a smile to my face each time I think of him. My prayers and condolences go out to his family and loved ones.
