I am beyond thankful and lucky for the 29 years I had with my great grandmother. She will forever live on with her family and friends. I will always brag about how she was the most hardworking person I ever knew and remember her chuckle when she would tell a funny story. There are so many happy memories to cherishâ¤
Esther was a gentle soul, caring mother and grandmother, and loyal friend to many. My deepest sympathies to all who knew and loved her.
Esther was such a great lady and I am so glad I was able to know her. My thoughts and prayers to the family.
