Esther, you made me feel just like I've known you for my whole life. When it's only been a day. You changed my life without a doubt and I know your star won't go out. There's just no way.

This Star Won't Go Out: The Life and Words of Esther Grace Earl audiobook signed by Lori Earl and Wayne Earl
Architects of the future, you have a chance, from this day forward, to live, getting inspiration from Esther, to live the life that she lived, a life of awesome, that was rooted in this Earth, with a view toward the future and planted firmly in the present. You have the possibility of taking and building structures of hope that come from the inside, out, and they flow like a river to those who are waiting, hungry, to receive their embrace and nourishment from the outside, in. So for everyone who has such a hopeful vision of the future, I say, let the building begin.
Wayne Earl, Dying is Inevitable. Living is Not: TEDxYouth@SanDiego
I left the cemetery and headed straight to the tattoo parlor. "Love is stronger than death" has been etched on my heart for some time now so I've decided to make it official. That phrase, along with your name, "Esther Grace", and a shooting star will soon appear on my body for all to see. Perched where I am, that's my understanding of your final resting place. It ain't final. Love, Daddy.

“I realize now that that’s the best way to love someone. Hold them close, know that you’re loved, let it wash over you. We got to love her and she got to love us. Amen?” - Wayne Earl
Creating words that could heal and energetically sharing and celebrating life in the here and now: that’s her legacy. We are convinced that this, along with a deep love for others, is how she would want to be remembered.
Lori and Wayne Earl, This Star Won’t Go Out: The Life & Words of Esther Grace Earl
Just be happy. And if you can’t be happy, do things that make you happy. Or do nothing with people that make you happy. There was so much more I wanted to say… I love you, and I hope you turn out good.
14 year-old Esther Earl, from her "Letter to Future me"
I always called her Star. I always called her Estee. And Grace was just the reminder we didn't want to forget that it's all about grace. It's all about the fact that we don't deserve these good things, but they're ours anyway, to enjoy and to share and to delight in.
