Please accept my condolences.
I will always remember Esther as a true and dedicated member of the Yellow Grass community.
Esther showed us by her example, that we ought to strive to carry out our duties and lives to the best of our abilities.
I also remeber the many conversations, encouraging remarks and meals shared over the years, when I visited Yellow Grass.
I am indeed Thankful all Ester offered us during her life.
Sincerely
Jim Bathgate
