Esther Tillotson Call


Dear Jim & Judy,

I just want to thank you for being such awesome neighbors and role models for me as I was growing up.  

For much of my childhood I think I was scared of you, Jim.  To such a little girl you seemed so big and intimidating.  However, the knowledge of having my dad as a fire fighter and you as a police officer always made me feel safe.  I just knew that with the two of you there everything would be alright.  As I grew older I felt your kindness and I could tell how much you loved your family. 

Judy, you really were like a second mom to me.  I am so grateful for the countless times you allowed me to tag along with Chrissy – whether it was just going to the store, to girl scouts, making dolls or any other various activity.  You have such a big heart and you were always kind and considerate of me, though I probably never thanked you for it.  I don’t know if I would have made it through my childhood without the kindness and Christlike influence of your family.

I am so grateful to have had you in my life and I will always remember you as some of the best people I have ever known.  Thank you a million times over for being you and creating such a great family. 

Love, Esther
