Obituary:
With you my heart will always stay. With you my thoughts will be every day…

Mary Rose Kaye Estes died suddenly Sunday, November 14, 2010 from injuries sustained in a four wheeler accident on the mountain she called home in Potter Valley, California. She was born January 7, 1960 in Ukiah, California and was a lifelong area resident. She was a loving wife, step-mother, daughter, sister, aunt, sister-in-law, and friend.
Mary is survived by her husband of 20 years, John Estes, her mother, Mary Anne Kaye, four brothers, Chuck (Judy), Joe (Diane), Leo (Sharlene), and Tom. Three nephews, Ty, Cody, and Justin, stepsons, Michael and Darren, grandson Justin, brothers-in law, Rodney and Norman Estes, and sisters-in-law, Karen Estes and Deborah Carney. She is preceded in death by her loving father, Charlie Kaye in April of 1985.
Mary graduated from Ukiah High School in 1978 and attended Cal Poly University in San Luis Obispo. She was an active member of St. Mary of the Angels Catholic Church. Mary’s interests include, first and foremost, her family and friends. She also loved outdoor activities including hunting, fishing, and diving. Mary enjoyed raising many types of animals, something she has done all her life even before and after her years as an avid 4-H’er. She devoted much of her time and energy as a committed wife and business partner to her loving husband John. The quote by H. Jackson Brown, Jr., “Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day.” was how Mary lived her life and how she will be affectionately remembered by all who knew her.
