So many wonderful and loving memories of her dancing and singing. And NOBODY made Horchata like her! Her smile and spirit will
forever be missed. Heaven has a new Angel.

I was the Friday driver to deliver meals! It was always a pleasure to talk to her. She was so sad when her dog died! May all your memories keep her in your heart!

Mrs. Rodriguez “Grandma Esther” was an amazing woman who was strong, loving, and knew how to make you laugh. I’ll never forget her playing music and dancing, teaching everyone that fun and good times are the things that keep us young at heart. My heart hurts for the family’s loss of such a beautiful human being. I’m truly blessed to have had the chance to know Grandma Esther.
