Our hearts and prayers go out to the family in their time of loss. May they find comfort in knowing she is in a better place and no longer in pain. She will always be with us in our hearts and thoughts.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. I only knew Esther for the last year or so, and was impressed by both her faith and her love for her family. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Esther was such a Godly example for those who suffer. May her suffering be an example to those who don't know Christ to realize that it was her faith that helped her endure her days of pain. God promises that while we may suffer in body on earth, that her suffering is no more and she is rejoicing with her maker. Let her death be not in vain and bring someone to know Christ.
