Esther Davidson Obituary, Death – At the time of her passing on November 19, 2022, Esther Davidson was 90 years old and had been a resident of Garrett. She passed away at the Greencroft Healthcare facility in Goshen.
She was born on November 28th, 1931 in DeKalb County to parents named Walter W. Davidson and Shirlie A. (Smith) Davidson. Her grandparents were also named Davidson. They have passed away, as have both of her sisters, Edith Davidson and Lois Pollard, who also preceded her in death before she did. Neither of them are here with us anymore.
Both Garrett High School in 1949 and Messiah College in Pennsylvania, both of which are located in the state of Pennsylvania, awarded Esther with a diploma upon completion of their respective programs. She regularly attended services at the Christian Union Brethren in Christ Church, where she was very active in the congregation. She was in charge of preparing church bulletins in addition to instructing Sunday school, playing the piano and organ, and preparing the weekly music schedule.
She worked as a bookkeeper at Deardorf Property Management, Inc. in Corunna before she retired, and then she went to work at Steckley’s Mill and Hatchery in Kendallville after she had finished her tenure there. Both of these positions she held before she retired from the workforce. Both she and her sister Edith held the position of sexton at the Christian Union Cemetery in Garrett for a significant amount of the cemetery’s lifetime.
After the sale of the family farm in the year 2008, she and her sister Edith came to the conclusion that it would be best for them to relocate to the Greencroft Healthcare facility located in the town of Goshen, which is located nearby.
Funeral services are scheduled to take place at 11:00 AM on Monday, November 28, 2022, at the Christian Union Brethren in Christ Church, which can be found at 4395 County Road 7 in Garrett. The date and time of the services have not yet been determined. The funeral and burial will be held at the Christian Union Cemetery, which is situated in Garrett as well. On Monday, there will be a visitation at the church beginning at 10:00 AM and continuing until 11:00 AM. This visitation will begin one hour before the funeral service will begin.
