Dear Family,
Not to have Esther in our lives is a most profound loss. She met the burdens of life unflinchingly and prevailed. She was highly intelligent and unshakably moral. Her wisdom and practicality helped guide me through a few tough times in my own life. She never failed to accept me, or anyone she loved, with open arms and however they came to her. Childhood memories are particularly precious. She was loyal to her family, friends, Church and Country. She was a remarkable woman and I shall miss her all the days of my life, and be grateful for having known her.
My love to all of you,
Cathi (Furman Miller)
