Esther was the beloved 4 month-old daughter of Charles Henry Cannon, Jr. (USMC) of Newark, New Jersey and Estrellita Santos of Los Angeles. California. Esther had blonde hair and blue eyes and a happy disposition. She was in perfect health.

Her mother put Esther in the care of a babysitter so she could go to the market nearby. The infant died when the babysitter placed Esther on a plastic sheet because she was drooling on the bed linens. The baby turned over and suffocated. When her mother arrived home, the babysitter was in shock still holding the lifeless infant on her lap not knowing what to do. The police were called, but it was judged a tragic accident.

Esther's grave is unmarked but is located immediately to the right of Leslie Thomas Trumble and 2 spaces to the left of Baby Harry Manning. Thank you svh77 for the cemetery photo.
