She was a former employee of L&H Shirt Co., but her passion was being a homemaker for her family. Mrs. Estelle loved to take her S-10 pickup and go fishing as often as she could. She also loved to work in the yards and go to gospel sings with Buck and their friends. The kitchen was another place she showed her love by cooking and baking and sharing her knowledge with anyone she could. Of all things she enjoyed, family gatherings were her favorite so she could spend time and make memories with everyone she loved.
