Residing In:    Las Vegas, NV USA

Occupation:    Church Administration/Choir Director

Children:    Heather, born July 1969

Birthday:    June 14, 1951

Comments:    I moved to Las Vegas with my (then) husband and have been here for almost 20 years. I have been divorced now for 11 years.

I work at a non-denomination church and am also the choir director. (Who would have thought.) Thank you Mr. Dean for all I learned in your classes. We are not the typical church choir singing hymns. We do an array of music....a lot of gospel...happy-type, hand-clapping songs. I am really in my element not only directing, (Sister Mary Clarence/Whoopi Goldberg has nothing on me) but singing every Sunday during church services. I am also in an art gallery with my African art.

I love it here in Viva Las Vegas but also love coming back home to Utah.

By the way............I absolutely HATE the name Esther....I dropped it YEARS ago....please call me Mary.

My beautiful "bff" Diane Halpin, who has made her transition.


I've always loved the movie White Christmas. My dear friend Cindy (here in Las Vegas) surprised me and made this dress for me. As the Choir Director, I wore it for our Christmas candlelight services this year. Rosemary Clooney has nothing on me!!
