Esta's funeral is at 10am Thurs at Double N Cowboy Church 4 miles south of Dublin, Tx. on Hwy 6.

Thank you Nicki, I only knew Esta a little and visited with her some over the years. She was sure a good natured person and fought one long battle. I have never forgotten the positive attitude she showed. Rest in Peace Esta, Vince

Bringing this thread back to the top....so many knew and loved Esta.

Yes, Annie, she was a great photographer. Although she didn't do weddings anymore (said it was too stressful, LOL) she offered to take pictures for Ron and I when she first learned we had gotten engaged. She captured our special day with many candid shots that most photographers would have never thought of. It was her idea to take a picture of me among the Bluebonnets in my wedding dress. There was a big field FULL of them at the edge of town, and she and I snuck away from the reception in her car, went to the field and took that picture before anyone realized we were gone. She had me sit among the flowers with my gown spread all around me, and then she had to help me up because my legs were tangled up in that long skirt! We were both laughing so hard, and then we hugged and she told me how great it was for her to see me so happy. It was one of the most special moments on my wedding day. I will remember her every time I see a Bluebonnet, or look at our wedding pictures. Jacquie

Esta's name was ParadiseLady. She was a really great lady and one helluva photographer. I've seen some of her pics and they were nice. RIP great lady. Annie

I just learned of this, and my heart is heavy today. Esta was a good friend, and one of the original ES members I met years ago. She had a heart full of warmth, a smile that was infectious, and was a good friend to many. RIP Esta, I'm sure you're sitting around that campfire in Heaven with Tim, KC Jones, George, Dakota, Terry, and several of our other friends who were called home already. We will meet again someday and share more good times together. Jacquie

Since I don't know very many first names, what was her screen name? Kay AKA Dreamininmt

I'm so sad and sorry to post this. Esta is/was one of our original "old timers" and has made many friends thru this site. She passed away last night. No further details at this point but her children will post details on her fb page when available. RIP in peace dear friend.
