===================================

Forget-me-nots from your ggggranddaughter who was born in California but came back "home" to Arkansas - I'm just now finding out about you and the Estes family here. I had no idea how much you all were involved with this state so many years ago. I hope to come visit your grave soon - your granddaughter, Luvenia Estes, was my "Gram" and she would be so tickled to know that I've found you.
