This is totally random, but I was just thinking about Ms perry today and found out she had passes. Ms. Perry randomly called my phone over two years ago while I was working in my yard and had mistaken me for one of her sons. I told her that she had a wrong number but we continued to talk anyway. I listened to Ms perry for close to a hour and heard all about her life and was amazed by her openness. I'm not sure if this will reach anyone's ears but of it does just know that she was an amazing woman who I'm glad I got to know for a hour.

Dear Family Of Mexie "Esther", I just saw Esther's Obiturary. Love that picture of her. If I come across any photo's-I will share. Know she is rejoicing with her Husband Branham. They enjoyed singing so much and sometimes came to Elkton First Baptist Church when we had special music. Sorry I am just sending this message. Beautiful family and I loved Esther. Love in Christ, Phyllis Barrett Sweetman & Skip Sweetman.

She loved God and her family. She loved the family reunion. She will be missed.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
