Esther was so very generous and kind. She was full of care for other people. She served and gave and helped. She could make complex systems interesting, organizational challenges fun, and business processes understandable. I learned a lot from her. Mostly what I learned is how to be gracious and kind and generous. I hope to live up to this life of hers. We will miss you Esther.
