• Notes

  The Patriot Ledger (Quincy, MA) November 30, 2010 HULL - Esther Evelyn Chandler, age 94, passed away on Nov. 27, 2010. She was born on Sept. 25th, 1916 in New Gloucester, Maine; the fifth of six children of Robert Flint Chandler and Harriet Clark (Loring) Chandler. She graduated from Deering High School in Portland, Maine in 1935. She leaves behind a large extended family and many long-time friends. After living in California briefly in her young adult years, Esther settled on the South Shore of Boston and lived in Braintree, Weymouth, Hingham and finally settled in Hull forty years ago. She played french horn in the Quincy Symphony Orchestra until she was 90. She kept small boats and ran a personal lobster line until her late 80's. Even though she no longer had a boat, in recent years she still gathered the family for Spring and Fall "Dock Days", when the dock at her home was put in and removed seasonally. In the 1950's and 60's, she was coowner of the Hingham Photo Service with her business partner Ruth Lincoln Blair. After selling the business, she worked as a title examiner for Hale and Dorr in Boston until her retirement. Her interests were her family, photography, classical music, the Red Sox, animals, fine cars and small boats.
