A-has-u-e’ rus and the rest,
Since Vash’ ti was unseen,
Chose to choose a new queen.

ON THIS DATE
Esther L. Kerr was born 2/21/1909, in Arizona Territory. Arizona was a Territory from 1863 until it became the 48th state, 2/14/1912, one week before Esther turned 3. Her brother was an evangelist, Phil Kerr. She married Howard Rusthoi, a minister – together they were called the “revival broadcasters.” She (they?) attended/participated in a church called Angeles Temple in Los Angeles, California. She died in Los Angeles, April 8, 1962. She wrote “It will be worth it all.”
“It will be worth it all when we see Jesus, Life’s trials will seem so small when we see Christ;
One glimpse of His dear face all sorrow will erase, So bravely run the race till we see Christ.”
Personal note – this is the song our daughter Laura, my wife & I were singing to Mom (Ruth E. Bryan) as she slipped from this world to the next, 2/26/12.
