God looked around his garden And He found an empty place. And then He looked down upon the earth, And saw your tired face. He put His arms around you, And lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain, He knew that you would never Get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough, And the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids, And whispered"Peace be thine." It broke our hearts to lose you . But you didn't go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God called you home.
 Rest in peace my sweet Mother until we meet again. Love you! Rebecca

 May You Rest in peace Nana.
I love you so much, and will think of you every time I see a Daylilie.

I'm going to miss going and seeing you, especially helping you dress your baby dolls. Love you Nana!

I can only imagine the joy in Heaven when you arrived and the reunion that took place. Until we meet again

Condolences from "The Ferguson Girls," Jauquita, Mary Kathryn, and Sue.  We have so many fond memories of Hester and Sue from days gone by.  We loved Hester and knew she loved us.  We will be forever grateful to her for teaching us about her beloved daylillies.  Whenever,  wherever, daylillies bloom, we can know Hester in Heaven is smiling.  May God give you, her beloved family, grace during this difficult time.

I did not get a chance to visit with cousin Hester after we both grew up but have pleasant memories of being with the family as a child.  God bless all of her family.

I will miss you aunt Hester I loved you! Robin Collum Bearden

We are so sorry for your loss but it is Heaven's gain.  We have many cherished memories of  visiting with Mama Hester and helping in her flower beds and keeping her yard mowed.  She was one of a kind.  We loved her dearly. Jerry and Marie Jeane, Texarkana, AR
