Publish in a newspaper

Esther Escalera Huerta went to be with her Lord on July 21, 2025. Born on August 10, 1950, in San Antonio, Texas, to Juan and Ramona Escalera, Esther lived a life marked by dedication, faith, and an abundance of love for her family and community.

Esther attended Sidney Lanier High School before marrying the love of her life, Tomas Guerrero Huerta, Jr., in 1967. Together, they raised three sons, James, Roland, and Ruben. A dedicated and hardworking individual, Esther worked for many years as an office assistant for Bexar County Public Works. She was a steadfast support to her family, embodying the roles of wife and mother with unwavering devotion.

Known for her incredible gift of hospitality, Esther's home was always open - filled with the warmth of laughter, the aroma of her delicious cooking, and the love she so freely gave to all. Whether for a family gathering or a casual visit, she always made sure no one left her home hungry or unloved.

Her faith was a cornerstone of her life. Esther became a Christian in 1979 and was a devoted member of several churches throughout her life, including Iglesia Bautista Sur San Antonio, Harlandale Baptist Church, and Theo Avenue Baptist Church. She served faithfully in various roles, including as a Sunday School teacher, Youth Ministry Assistant, a member of the outreach ministry, and a vital part of the cooking crew.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Juan and Ramona Escalera; her beloved husband, Tomas; her son Ruben; her brother Raul Escalera; and her sister Frances Escalera.

Esther is survived by her loving children, James and his wife Miriam, Roland, and Cindy and her husband Tom. She will be dearly missed by her grandchildren, Joshua and his wife Mia, Ezekiel, Leonor, and Abigail, as well as her sisters Margaret Robles and Janie Mann, and numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and dear friends.
