Guestbook

  1. We will miss Estella. She was a good neighbor and friend to James and I. Our love goes out to her children and grandchildren. May God’s peace and grace get you through this mourning period. Connie and James Davis

  2. Estella was such a pleasure to be around; always had a smile for everyone. Our Starnes Cove church family will miss her. May God give the family peace and comfort in the days ahead. God bless you

  3. Estella was very special to me and my family. She was married to Wayne’s nephew (Joe Wells). We’re so glad to have her as part of our family. May God give her family peace and comfort at this time!

  4. Starnes Cove Baptist Church, and the community, has lost a very neat lady, that loved her late husband, Wayne, her church, and church family. She will be missed by many that knew her. Her contagious laugh, and energy was always a huge part of her greetings, as she entered the church on Sunday Mornings. As her Deacon, I am so thankful that Shirley and I were able to visit with her, before the virus hit. Even then, she was still her ‘ole self, and laughing, but was anxious to get out of the facility, and be able to go back to her home. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to do that. Our prayers and condolences go out to the family.

  5. Love you granny. I have such great memories of us and will always remember your delicious biscuits.

  6. Estella was part of our Jack Young Greenhouses family for many years, she loved growing plants and flowers especially and was an excellent employee and a sweet and loving friend. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her. Our sympathy to her family. Jack and Kay
