Lena and Ester are now together, finding amusement in everyday things - can hear them giggling . They shared so much , the four of them travelled together, shared many visits and enjoyed reminiscing about the past. They were such a big part of our lives . Our thoughts are with you remembering beautiful Ester today. Hugs June and David

Dear Barbara, Colleen & Family;
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this very sad time. Auntie Esther was a most wonderful gentle lady who touched us all deeply and will be most sadly missed. We will all remember her for her kindness, her thoughtfulness and her great concern for us all. She loved our children and grandchildren; she was a truly great "AUNTIE". May all your fond memories help sustain you all through the days and years to come; and may her Memory be Forever Eternal. May she now rest in Peace with Dear Uncle Walter.
Most Sincerely;

MY condolences to all of the family.
Mrs. Megley was a beautiful, elegant person of "Beverly" who made her mark in quiet, unassuming ways. With Walter she raised two amazing daughters and was a working woman too. We would talk sometimes on the Beverly bus. She never knew how she positively influenced me during my teen years.
So sorry for your loss. Janice
