I get my Benkelman Post & News-Chronicle every Thursday. Yesterday there was an item on page 8 with Esther's picture and a little note saying that she was selected as January "resident of the month" at the Hester Home in Benkelman.
I just wanted to extend good wishes to Esther and thought maybe sending her a card at the Hester Home might be nice.
The article says that Esther was born on March 19, 1916, one of Peter and Mary Freehling's 10 children and grew up on their farm west of Haigler. She married Roy Walter in September 1937 and had two children, David and Richard. They lived east of Haigler until 1989 when they moved to St. Francis. She moved to the Hester Home last October.
I look forward to Thursday's mail when I get the "Post". I enjoy reading "Haigler Happenings" because I remember the people mentioned and am interested in what is going on "nowadays" in Haigler. Richard and Glenda Bartholomew are doing a great job reporting the area news.
