      Esther was born in Wellesley Township on January 22, 1922 and passed away on November 29, 2020 at Knollcrest Lodge, Milverton, Ontario.

      She married Michael Streicher in 1944 and together they farmed at Fernbank for 29 years.

      The last of her generation in both Kuepfer and Streicher families, she is survived by her 8 children, Henry (Helen), Ervin (Ella), Raymond (Velma), Eunice (Robert), Michael, Ruth, Robert (Beverly) and Deborah (Bernard), 12 grandchildren, Craig, Donovan, Anita, Susan, Trevor, Karen, Lelia, Garret, Stephanie, Ellen, Shawn and Michael.

Her latest great granddaughter was born 6 days before her passing and carries her name.

      Esther was predeceased by husband Michael in 1996 and granddaughter Jolene in 2001, also by parents Veronica (Herrfort) and Peter S.
