Estella B. Killian

Estella Sadie Beieler Killian, 95, of Boynton Beach passed away peacefully on Christmas Eve 2019.  She is survived by her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.  Born in Saginaw, Michigan, Estella and her husband Bob moved to Delray Beach in 1947.  Estella was a member of First Presbyterian Church of Delray Beach for over 70 years volunteering in many roles over the years.  She served as a Sunday school teacher, deacon and in the Stephen’s Ministry.  She volunteered at Holly House with church bazaars and rummage sales…working with the jewelry was always her favorite!   She volunteered and cooked for the Wonderful Wednesday evening gatherings, coordinated communion and even baked the communion bread. For many years she volunteered at Vacation Bible School which many of her grandchildren attended.  In addition to volunteering, Estella worked as a custodian for the church keeping it clean and tidy! Her countless hours and dedication to First Presbyterian Church are without measure and for Estella that is how she served her God and neighbor.  Estella was active in the Girl Scouts, VFW auxiliary, in the women’s organization of the Military Order of Cootie and the Order of Amaranth, serving veterans of foreign wars.  Estella was wholly dedicated to her family and was there for every birth, baptism and birthday…she was always there.  Our family has been blessed to have her in our lives for this amazing length of time.  We are proud of her and happy that she is celebrating her reward for a life well lived with Our Lord.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at 4PM at Lorne and Sons Funeral Home.
