They later moved to a farm east of Austin, living there for 16 years before moving in to Austin. Eric died on Nov. 11, 1986. Esther continued to live in Austin, where she loved to garden. Her flowers were a showcase around her home. She worked at St. Olaf Hospital as a dietary assistant from 1956 to 1972. Esther also enjoyed crocheting, which she gifted to many people. She took joy in giving to others as well as giving and receiving cards. She was a former member of Trondjem Lutheran Church, where she was an active member of the Ladies Aid.
