I'm so sorry to hear of Esther's passing. She and her husband Roland made my 5 years of teaching water aerobics at the YMCA so much fun! She was such a loving, kind and gentle lady.

She was a blessing to me, a transfer student, to a new school district in the middle of the school year. She is the ONLY bright memory I have of 6th grade. May her memory be a blessing for you always.

Mrs. Kuenker, my first grade teacher, was my favorite teacher throughout all my years of schooling. Her warmth, patience and gentle guidance stayed with me up until this day. She will be missed. Fran Knight Arvan
