Dear Peter, Esther was a terrific fifth grade teacher. She was an especially science teacjer Our son was one of her many appreciative students, and we, appreciative parents. I remember especially going on a field trip on the Drumlin and we all--students and parents learned so much from Esther, geology, solar system, nature in its wholeness.
I enjoyed seeing her at Concord concerts and at Carleton Willard. She leaves a great legacy.
