Essie was more than just my cousin, she and all her family were a huge part of my life growing up. We have had lots of laughs and fun throughout the years. Too many to count. And also the support the Hadler family gave us during our times of sorrow. Heartfelt thoughts and prayers for the family. You will be missed

I’ve known Essie since high school we worked together, hung out together, our relationship reconnected several times through the years as we lived in the same towns. We walked through many life changes together. One funny memory was when she got these boots that went over her knees and this guy at the Elks nearly walked into a pole staring at her and her boots. We snickered through our whole meal…

A beautiful service for Essie; well planned and loved. I bought gold tennis shoes from Essie’s store next to Dairy Queen and also some white pants. Enjoyed a picnic and swim with friends at her home a few years back. Sympathy and treasures of memories to each of you loved ones! Heath, a gift of shared memories brought joy and peace!
