My family lived next door to you when I was a little girl and Jane (at least) used to babysit. I recall many beautiful summer evenings playing "red light green light" in your yard with lots of other neighborhood kids. Your mother took care of me when my mom was in the hospital having my brother. I have always remembered so well the kindness of your mother, the fabulous waffles she made for me, the wonderful chiming clocks, and the beautiful piano she let me play. What a lovely gentle lady and a sad loss for her family and community.

Pat, Mary, Ruth, and Jane. I'm so sorry for your loss of an amazing woman and mother. Thank you all for entrusting her to our care. We loved her dearly and her obituary speaks clearly of her sweet, loving, giving, personality. She was a real gentlewoman. She always had a kind word and a sweet hand to touch your face with. I was blessed to have known her, and thru her, all of you. God's blessings to you all.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Please accept my sincere condolences. Esther was clearly loved and will be missed. As a spiritual woman, she no doubt took comfort in the Bible's promise for the future. Acts 24:15 speaks of a resurrection, a time when God will reunite us with our lost loved ones! I hope this helps bring some comfort in this time of sorrow.
