Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Mr and Mrs Roosevelt Dunn, please know that we extend our heartfelt sympathy to you and your family in the passing of Esther. No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Doris & Ty Cooper-Curry

We will remember Esther kindly and she will be missed. Ty was especially fond of her and always enjoyed visiting with her whenever and where ever he could. I will always remember how she sang "Prayer will fix it for you" and how it always helped me to NOT give up at times when I felt like it. I respected her will to live and the strength she showed throughout the many medical experiences she endured.
