They married on June 6, 1948 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stewart, whom Esther was a nanny for their three sons while attending college. Esther raised two loving daughters, Kathy and Deb. Tragically, Kathy passed away at the age of twenty-two in 1975. Esther retired as an Administrative Assistant for St. Paul Insurance Company after nineteen years to take care of her parents.
