So sorry for your lose.  She was a soft-spoken woman with a wonderful smile that would light up her entire face.  She has been missed in the neighborhood.  She is with Clair now and they are happy to be reunited.  Lynn Fortney

You have my sincere sympathy in the loss of Esther. She was such a gracious, sweet lady. I only got to know her a little bit, but I will never forget her. I pray that God will comfort your family with the peace only He can give, John 14:27.

With deepest sympathy for the departing of your dear Esther.  You are in my thoughts at this difficult time.  Remember that there are wonderful promises from the scriptures that can help you and also the hope for your loved ones.  Isa 25:8 – He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.  I hope this scripture can bring you comfort.    Heartfelt condolences.
