Esther Maria Donnel

She touched my life in many ways, I learned from her sayings, they altered my life, a wonderful mother, she cared for her girls with wisdom , instinct and love, and I'll never forget, her dancing with her Roscoe, and letting him be a boy , no matter how old, no better wife could exist, an example to all who knew her, so vivacious, full of life , I will miss her the rest of my life.

i will never forget the one who has always been there for me through thick and thin my grandmother its taken me this long to be able to write words and express my feelings. My grandmother and I loved each other very much, and i feel guilty about not being there for her for the last few days but i feel that shes knows that iam always with her no matter what, she was my god sent and my heart to make feel loved. I will miss her dearly and will always think about her through body, mind,and soul....

Esther will be remembered as a loving mother and grandmother. You were always welcome in her home. She will be greatly missed.

Her beauty and intelligence live on in her daughter Mary and daughter Nancy and Grandchildren. I loved this woman like my own mother..the ultimately devoted wife...she is now with her husband..

One of my first ever sleep overs was at the Donnel home...I was 9 years old. I thought WOW...Mary's moms was so pretty. Well Ester turned out to be much more than a pretty face but a beautiful loving, kind, patient amazing woman. Esther I will miss you..and will never forget you. Your extra daughter...Gina

My Tia Esther was an exceptional woman. She was king and caring. My memories of her are vivid. Although I wasn't around her in her later years I am sure that she was the same loving women I remember. She use to take me every year to go shopping for back to school clothes. It was a ritual and after shopping we would go eat. I spent lots of nights in their Glendale home in the upstairs bedroom that till this day brings back memories. My Tia Esther was special and will always be remembered by...

I remerber her always so kind and witha beautiful smile,take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you. Lizbet Pratt
