Sherry Bodell, I had no idea this was your mother. She was in Millers Assisted Living with my mother, Joyce Ringer. Esther was such a classy lady and so sweet. Mom always spoke so highly of her. So sorry to hear of her passing. Since Mom passed a year ago I do not keep up and see the ladies over there. My thoughts are with you and your family. Debbie (Ringer) Cornelius
