GALENA–Hester Ann Pitts Newton, 95, possessed a unique ability to judge people by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin. Her heart was filled with friendships made along her life’s path. There was always room for more friends.
Hester died on Friday, Oct. 20, 2023, at Prairie Ridge of Galena, where she had lived since September 2019.
The family will celebrate her life in Muskegon at a later date.
Memorials may be made to Galena Public Library digitization project, First Presbyterian Church of Muskegon or Muskegon Community Foundation where there is a scholarship fund for her youngest son.
