Estelle was simply "Nanny" to me. A loving grandmother who taught me to fish and cuss like a fisherman. We spent many summer days together fishing at Sardis Lake and most of the days even catching fish too. Biscuits and jelly early in the RV, fishing all day long, and then fish frys for dinner pretty much sums those days up. She will be missed and will always a special spot in my heart. I know she is somewhere out there yelling "BINGO" or "FISH-FISH-FISH" right about now. I LOVE YOU NANNY & THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SMILES, LAUGHS, AND ADVENTURES!

Since I was little she my Annie Estelle. When I lived in West Memphis I got to visit her often. Her and her momma Floy (grandma) loved going to bingo..often to the boat and play the slots. She took me to my first gambling boat and we played bingo too. Our drives to Mississippi were so nice to see her favorite Sardis Lake. One of most favorite things was her voice I loved hearing her talk. That beautiful accent of the south. Miss you and know you won't be forgotten.
Love you!
Your Angie
