Estes's Fish and Steak House

The September 24th Lee County Courier has a feature on Steve and Sandra Estes who reopened their restaurant in Plantersville which was closed in 2006 due to Steve's health problems. They opened the restaurant where Vernons Restaurant in Tupelo was in July 1983 and moved it to Plantersville in 1985.

Estes's Fish and Steak House is indeed a landmark in the area. It has always been the place for me to encounter people from my past. I hate to be maudlin, but I think of all those who the last place I saw them before their death was at Estes's. Sheriff Presley, Louzell Francis, Marion Helms, Janice Swain, Kitty Morgan, and Mr. David Estes are some I recall.
