Although it has been 45 years since your passed, I still remember you as if it was yesterday. Life has never, ever been the same since you have been called Home. I will never get over losing you Mom, but have learned to live with it. Now, you and Dad are together...finally.
Love you forever.....

It is difficult to remember someone so wonderful when there is someone else in our family on the brink of passing at this time.

But, Aunt Esther was a very special woman and deserves all the love and recognition we can give. RIP Auntie.

This is the anniversary of my mother passing away and I still miss and love her very much. May she and my father who is now with her continue to rest in peace.

Dear Mom...
On this birthday, March 21, you would have been 83 years old..imagine all the years we would have had together and you with the grand children. I am sure things would've been very different for us all if you have been around. To this very day, you are still very much missed and loved...until we meet again!

Happy Birthday to a lovely lady who is sorely missed by all who knew her.

I don't have to many fond memories because I was so young I do remember being spoiled to death by you and the warm milk and peanutbutter and jelly sandwichs I love and miss you Mom R.I.P.

Dear mom...

It is November 12, 2014, 43 years since your passing and the years since your passing has not diminished the love that I have for you. You are very much missed and I often think of you. You have been called home and is in the arms of our Savior...until we meet again, rest in peace!

Dear Mom....
it's been over 40 years since your passing..and still today you are missed so much. We, your children was so young when you was called home and needed you to be with us, but God had other plans for you. On this Mother Day...we want to honor and continue to remember you in our lives. Until each of us make that journey and we meet again....you will forever be loved and missed!!

Rest In Peace beautiful spirit that is gone too soon. I know you are greatly missed.

Happy Birthday to my mother who dies over 40 years ago, but is still badly missed and very much loved. Had you been alive today, all of our lives would have been difference, however, considering we all turned out ok...Tell Stevie and Dad, I said hello...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM. ALTHOUGH IT HAS BEEN DECADES SINCE I LAST HEARD YOUR VOICE OR SEEN YOU. I CAN STILL REMEMBER HOW YOU SOUND AND THE LOVE YOU ALWAYS SHOWED ME. I GET ANGRY SOMETIMES BECAUSE WE NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO KNOW YOU AS ADULTS AND SHOWER YOU WITH THE LOVE YOU DESERVE SO MUCH.I REMEMBER ALL THE TIMES WE AS A FAMILY WOULD WATCH TV WITH YOU ON FRIDAY NIGHTS AND HOW YOU WOULD TELL US STORIES OF A MOVIE YOU HAD SEEN THE NIGHT BEFORE ON SATURDAY MORNING AS WE ATE BREAKFAST. I LEARNED SO MANY LIFE LESSONS FROM YOU AND I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU. MAY GOD BLESS YOUR BEAUTIFUL SOUL. LOVE UR SON LARRY

I have fond memories of my mom always giving me what ever I wanted.I remember coming home from school and laying in her bed and watching cartoons while she would make me peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with warm strawberry milk.I know she watches over me and makes sure I am ok.........I miss and love you Mom.....R.I.P.

My mother been gone for over 40 years, November 12 that passed marked the 42 year since she was called home...I still miss her and think of her often, some memories are fading, but others are blazing strong in my mind and heart. I even have memories of her when I was 5 years old. She was a loving, quiet and good mother, wife and woman.

My Aunt Esther died much too soon, too soon to really get to know her. I was only 16 y/o when she died and in the years that I did know her, I remember a quiet, shy but beautiful woman who had such a gentle way about her that I don't think I ever heard her raise her voice in anger. I'll love my cousins forever and, feel their pain at not being acknowledged at their father's funeral.

NOT ONE DAY GOES BY WITH OUT ME THINKING OF MOM,I CAN ALWAYS REMEMBER HER TELLING US ABOUT A MOVIE SHE HAD WATCHED THE NIGHT BEFORE ON TV ON A SATURDAY MORNING AS WE ATE BREAKFAST, THE BODY SNATCHERS IS THE ONE I REMEMBER THE MOST.. OR THE TIMES SHE WOULD GO CHRISTMAS SHOPPING WITH STEVIE AND I. I MISS HER SO MUCH. I WISH SO MUCH WE COULD GOTTEN TO BE WITH HER AS ADULTS.

This is a memorial to my mother who died too soon. When my father passed away in 2009, she was not acknowledged as his first wife which I feel was unjust. It is also the reason why this memorial was created.

ESTHER MARIE CARTER WAS THE FIRST WIFE OF CHARLES M. CARTER AND THE MOTHER OF HIS SIX CHILDRN!

I OFTEN THINK OF MY MOTHER,WHEN EVER THINGS ARE NOT GOING WELL FOR ME I THINK OF HER TOUGHNESS AND HEART AND THAT THOUGHT MORE THAN OFTEN WILL INSPIRE ME TO ENDURE AND GET THRU WHAT EVER IM GOING THRU.WHEN EVER I THINK OF GENUINE KINDNESS I REALIZE IT IS A TRAIT WE AS A FAMILY INHERITED FROM HER.AS I GET OLDER I REALIZE MY MOTHER WAS AN AMAZING AND SPECIAL PERSON AND HOW LUCKY WE WERE.
