Dear family of Esther,
Esther taught me how to sew in 4-H and I have many fond memories with all of the Lehto family. It was even with Jean's pull that I was able to get my 1st job of waitressing at Fred's Home Cooking! All our lives are intertwined aren't they. (and John recalls the collie named "Blackie".
Esther was a great lady and much appreciated, as are all of you Lehto's! God bless you all with His peace and comfort during this time.

Mr. Donald Lehto & Family
My condolences on your loss & and a great loss to our community.
I got to meet Her & Donald when I worked one summer for them making hay,
It was then that I got to know and love both him & her.
And what they both stood for & what they did to help everybody.
What a wonderful couple & what tender hearts they showed to all.
She will be greatly missed by all that ever came into contact with her.
She was a very special woman.
I won't forget her.
Im so sorry for your loss , you have my deepest sympathy . Esther was a very kind person as well as the rest of the family .
Hello Lehto Family,
I will always have fond memories of Esther, most of them coming from years ago when I was a summer visitor on Gristmill road, and the hospitality and friendly environment that was always present. Even as receintly as last summer's reunion she was extremely positive and friendly. Cindy and I feel your loss and wish all of you peace in this difficult time.
I am so sorry to hear of Esther's passing. My prayers and thoughts are with Donald and the family at this sad time. She was a very kind and loving person and this earth would be a better place if more people had her special kind of grace.
Dear Lehto Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at the loss of a very warm and caring woman, you opened your house up when loss had taken place when I was a child, I will always remember your kindness. Thank you and if there is anything I can do, please call.
Dear Lehto Family. Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of Ester. She was an exceptional lady and she's at peace now. God Bless
To the Lehto family: Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all! I've been gone from the U.P. 8 yrs. but was a member of MULC for many, many years prior to leaving and Esther was such a wonderful, kind, and sweet soul! I don't think I ever saw her w/o a smile on her face, even when she was going thru all her medical issues. Both she and Don were/are exceptional people and it was a privilege to know them and call them friends! God Bless and Keep You All!!
Our deepest sympathy to the Lehto family during this difficult time.
