To all of the many Esser Families,
To loose a member of your family is so hard. I lost 2 uncles, a cousin in Steve Hurd and my father. All of these were sad moments and the only thing I can say is " Bless the memories, the reunions, weddings, the babies being born and always keep those we loose in our hearts and in our souls "
Whenever you look in the skies there will clouds shaped like the faces of those we will always miss. Shed a tear, a laugh and just smile as those in the skies are smiling upon all those they loved.
Ray, your a great person born into a great namesake and the Esser's are one of the greatest families of the State of Wisconsin.
Take Care, Gary
