My deepest condonlences to Esther Mora's family. I met your mother when I was a young girl working at St. Joseph Hospital, she was such a kind, thoughtful generous Godly woman who took you under her wing, and mothered you with support and wisdom. She was always dressed emaculate, her makeup, and hair always. She was always smiling and up beat, and she adored her family. She always had wonderful stories of their mile stones and acheivements, she was always so proud.
I feel very lucky to have known her.

You all are in thoughts and prayers

Esther was such a wonderful woman. Even now, as an adult I have often thought fondly of her. I have been a friend of her daughter Patty since Junior high and Esther was always so welcoming, generous, warm and had a smile that would light up the room. And what a cook!!!!
I am deeply sorry for your loss Mr. Mora, Patty, Lance and Jaqueline. I know that she will be missed by you and your family and her many friends.
God bless you.

My Aunt Tel was a wonderful person. I will cherish all of her memories. The rides in her black mercury, the trips to the beach and christmas eve at her home. She worked at St.Joseph Hospital for many years then at Macy's. She loved to shop and will never forget the wonderful times she spent with my mom and her sisters. Their multiple trips to the Mission and to Knotts Berry Farm. You will always be in our hearts. Rest in Peace.
Love, Lola
