I have had several traumatic brain injuries, and I did not realize we had lost Esta. I worked at Baptist Lodge GA/Acteens camp with Esta in 1976-77. She was a great, kind person, and we had a lot of fun back then. I also got to have supper with her and her daughter one of the times she was in Salem, VA.
God bless her family and friends.

I was just thinking about Esta a couple months back and was sad I had lost. Had not seen her since 1983. She was in my platoon at the Basic School. Will have found memories. RIP Esta

Met Esta the first time at The Basic School in Quantico Va. in 1980 and served with her at 7th Motor Transport Battalion at Camp Pendleton Calif. A great person, outstanding personality. I am truly saddened to learn of this news.
