    For my Uncle Eston, I have to say that you have left this earth to soon. But we had some good me.memories that I hold dear. What I wouldn’t give to have another day with you, my Daddy, my grandma Lura, my brother Jeremy, uncle Jimmy, & Aunt Judy. It doesn’t seem fair that we can’t make more memories together. But we aren’t promised tomorrow so I’m grateful for the memories we got to make.
    Today as I go to say goodbye. You will be missed by many & kept in my heart forever. RIP Uncle Eston I love you! Love Always, Mortisha Lynn.
