Not sure what to say?

Sharing your sorrow in the loss of your beloved, and sending deepest sympathy. She was my former teacher, a friend, and a lady of substance -- an encourager. May your vivid memories and God's love sustain you. ~Sincerely

My deepest sympathy to the family of a great lady whom I knew as an accomplished leader in both the SC Conference United Methodist Women and the SC Conference and Southeastern Jurisdiction Historical Societies of the UMC.

Condolences to Mrs Esther's family. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

My heartfelt sympathy. I am at a loss for adequate words to express my sadness. I had the blessed opportunity of knowing Aunt Esther Nell and cannot find enough words to express my gratitude for the many ways that she has touched my life and the countless times we have spent together and it was a pleasure to get her to turn from her love of Buick's to falling in love with BMW's. She will be truly missed. Gone, but never forgotten.

I was most honored to know and call Mrs. Esther Nell Knuckles Glympth Witherspoon a role model and a friend...She was also a friend of the USC COSW Isaiah DeQuincey Newman Institute for Peace and Social Justice...I will miss her physical presence and her wise counsel.

A beautiful lady with a beautiful spirit.She will truly be missed.

Esther was a great lady and a devoted servant of the Church. She distinguihsed herself as a member of the General Commission on Archives and History of the UMC and helped to reorganize the SC Conference Historical Society of the UMC. She will long be remembered by those who love the United Methodist Church as she did. We are all much in her debt for her service and devotion.

Esther was a precious lady who was a bright spot at the Columbia Shepherd's Center for many years. I enjoyed our time together and will miss her dearly.
