<p>Esther A. LeBlanc, age 63, died peacefully on September 28th, 2024 . </p><p><br></p><p>Esther was the loving daughter of the late Reginald and Marguerite (Stearns) Kimball and grew up in Millinocket, Maine. She was a graduate of Stearns High School, Class of 1979, and would receive her bachelor's degree from Thomas College in 1983. While in college she met Paul D. LeBlanc and the two would marry and settle in Bridgewater, MA where they had their son, Nicholas. </p><p><br></p><p>Esther had a huge personality and was a born saleswoman. She knew how to foster lifelong relationships, provide excellent customer service, and many of her customers and colleagues became her dear friends. Her career started selling “trucking services," then cash registers, and eventually she was gainfully employed for the past 28 plus years with Beiersdorf in skin care sales. Esther was incredibly proud of her son Nick, especially him following her footsteps in a career in sales. </p><p><br></p><p>When Esther was not traveling for work and pleasure, she could be found on Kezar Lake in Maine in the summers. She had many roots there as her extended family lived along the lake, it was her happy place and summer getaway. She loved being in the water, cooking and baking, dancing to Shania Twain, taking a sunset cruise, or just being with family and neighborhood friends who were always coming and going at her house. And of course, she dearly loved all her cats throughout the years and her beloved dog, Koji. </p><p><br></p><p>Her outgoing personality, generosity, and contagious laugh will be missed by all who knew her. </p><p><br></p><p>Esther leaves behind her son, Nicholas of Boston, two sisters Valerie Leino and Pamela Smith, both of Millinocket, Maine, ex-husband and friend, Paul, and many loving nieces, nephews, and friends. </p><p><br></p><p>All are cordially invited to a visitation at the Chapman Funerals and Cremations, 35 Spring St., EAST BRIDGEWATER, on Friday Oct. 11 from 5-8pm. A funeral home service will be held on Saturday Oct. 12 at 11am followed by a luncheon. </p><p><br></p><p>In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network by <a href="//secure.pancan.org/site/Donation2?df_id=6701&mfc_pref=T&6701.donation=form1">clicking here</a>. </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe height="330" width="512" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" src="https://www.tributeslides.com/videos/embedded_video/8SPWHHL4WJ69B926" class="ts_player"></iframe></p>
