Esther Mae Tesch

In Loving memory of Esther Mae Tesch, born February 28, 1938 passed away February 26, 2024 in Bremerton WA.

Esther was born in Greatfalls Montana; grew up on Fox Island/Tacoma WA. She was a stay at home mom then worked for Karen’s Beauty School. After retiring Esther and Steve traveled the United States and ended up in Yuma, AZ for the winter and Naches, WA in the summer. In 2016 they moved to Bremerton and lived with their daughter. Esther loved living in Bremerton as it put her close to her family, friends and the beach. Esther and Steve were married for 64 years; since Steve's passing in 2021, he has been awaiting Esther’s arrival in heaven. Our family is grateful they are again joined forever and thankfully Esther passed away peacefully.

She is survived by her daughter Teri Orr (Ted), son Timothy Tesch (Debra), 2 grandsons; Carl Tesch (Kacey), Tyler Hardy (Felecia) and 5 great grandchildren, all of Bremerton, WA and numerous cousins.

The memorial service will be held on Saturday, March 23, 2024 at Emmanuel Lutheran Church, 2509 Perry Ave., Bremerton, WA, at 2:00 pm followed by a reception. In lieu of flowers, please donate to Emmanuel Lutheran Church.
