Portage MichiganThe Thomas Pederson family is very sad to learn of Esther’s death. Esther was such a good “condo mate” to Tom and Jul Pederson, often visiting with them, watering the outdoor flowers and helping in any way she could. My brothers, Duane and Jerry Pederson and I (JoAnn Pederson Scott) often saw Esther on our many visits to West Fargo. She will be missed as a friend and a neighbor. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this sad time. JoAnn Pederson Scott
