So sorry to hear about Esther. She was a sweetheart heart, always kind. We shared sitter experience. Kim my niece moved next door to her. I´d see her from time to time. Suzanne said my brother Walter adored her. They were good friends growing up. I know Esther is sheltered in the arms of God. I´m saddened by this Sandra. Our prayers and condolences to the family! You´re in our thoughts. May the Lord bring you comfort and His peace. He truly care for you.
