Sad. Esther seemed so full of life and energy in her posts.

This news is devastating...I have followed Esther's adventures since she joined this board...so full of life and such a bright shining spirit. Yet another blazing angel looking down on all of us.....this disease has robbed all of us of another great fighter....my deepest sympathy to her family...With Love and Tears

I will miss her beautiful smiling face and caring posts. She has fought for all of us. I hope her family can find comfort in knowing she is at peace and free from pain. Yes, Sheila we have another shining angel watching over us.

My deepest sympathy to all her family and friends.

So sad. However, Esther will be with us in spirit now.

Sad news!
 

This news just seems so incomprehensible to me. Esther was so strong and I always felt she had many more years ahead of her. She was inspiring, courageous, and so willing to share her stories. She provided me with hope, and convinced me of the importance of staying fit. She refused to allow her diagnoses to get in the way of what she was determined to do.
I offer my sincere condolences to her family.

Oh, boo...Esther was always there for me in the years I have been on this board. Sad sad news...will hold her family close in my heart.

So sorry to hear of Esther's passing. She was such a bright uplifting gal here on the board.

May her family know no more sorrow.

all the best

So sad, I hate this disease!

Oh no. I feel so sad for her family and friends. Esther was so lively and full of fun. I enjoyed reading of her travels and was so proud of all she did.

We mill miss you Esther.

Hugs and Prayers,

So sorry to read this. She was always so upbeat. This seemed to have happened so quickly. Thank you for letting us know Darlene. Too many special people taken too early by this disease. She will be missed.

My prayers go out to Ester's family during this most difficult time.

I always loved reading about Ester's adventures.

So sorry to hear and prayers to the family.

I was sad to read this post tonight. I'm so sorry to hear of another angel's passing.

Peace.....

This is almost unbelievable. I know Steph reported that Esther was not doing well but even that was unbelievable. She was doing well. At least she taught us to live life to the fullest and she did just that.

I am sorry and saddened for her and her family.

Esther was another brave and sweet soul who is now an angel. She touched so many lives in her short time here on Earth, making each one richer, fuller, and so full of wonderful life. My prayers go out to her loved ones tonight. Her spirit will live on in all those who knew her. I will miss her deeply.
Love,
Vickie

I remember the early days post-diagnosis when I would see Esther's posts from this beach or that mountain and I would think that if she can do all that with breast cancer, then I can make it through this! She made me look to the future and be ready to take on bigger and tougher challenges than my lil ole breast cancer tumor. Between her adventures and SandyH and her edgy shoes, they really brightened my days. Thank you Esther! Love and prayers to your family, who will undoubtedly miss your presence so very much.
