Words cannot begin to express my sincere sympathy to my Aunt Jane and my cousins and their families.
I will always remember Eston for his gentle nature and the way he loved his family. Uncle Eston had a wonderful laugh that I can still hear. I know you will miss him but we know he is in a better place with no pain or sorrow. I love all of you and you are in my prayers.
