Esther Ellen Fedele

Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns. It calls me on and on across the universe. - Across the Universe, The Beatles

On Sunday, November 20th 2022 after a brief and valiant battle with brain cancer, Esther Ellen Reid Fedele’s human experience came to an end. She was 69 years old.

Esther passed away peacefully while at home surrounded by her family and friends. She is survived by her husband Frank Fedele, her mother Enriqueta (Kay) Reid, her siblings Jerry, Ray and Judi, and her daughters Melissa Mennillo & Crystal Peck.

Esther’s love, like her family, was limitless. She was a wonderful and supportive stepmother to Erica, Amber, Laura, and Jake. Her adventurous spirit will live on in her grandchildren, James and Henry Peck, Ava Brooks and Jackson Rasco, whom she loved and indulged, as only a grandmother could.

Esther had a deep love of music and reading, both of which she has passed on to her daughters, grandchildren, nieces and nephews. She lived life like she was in a musical, always breaking out in song, sometimes at the most inappropriate moments; giving us all something to smile and laugh about.

Her creativity and talent will shine on in her beautiful stained glass projects; she will be remembered each time we look at a garden in bloom or we gaze out at the ocean from her favorite place…a sandy beach.

We will miss her laughter, her unconditional love and support, her bravery. Esther was one of a kind and will be so deeply missed but we know that her energy is infinite. She will live on through those that knew and loved her and will be with us forever.

Please join us for a celebration of Esther’s life on Saturday, December 3 at 12:00 noon at Heald Funeral Home, 48 Court Street, Plattsburgh, NY.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Hospice of North County.
