Esther C. Mayhugh, 63, of West Mifflin, formerly of the North Side, passed away suddenly on November 21, 2025. Born on April 25, 1962 in Pittsburgh, she is the daughter of Marion Davis and the late Thomas Benner.

Esther was a devoted mother, a natural caretaker, and someone whose kindness touched everyone around her. She spent her life putting others first, always offering a helping hand. In her spare time, Esther enjoyed visiting the casino with her family. Above all, her greatest joy came from being a mother. She was endlessly proud of her children and devoted her life to their happiness and well-being.
