Born on Feb. 7, 1920, in Auburndale, to Louis and Anna (Knier) Manlick. At the age of 18, she moved to Manitowoc, where she became a trained attendant at Holy Family Hospital. It was there that she met a patient, Joseph H. Schrimpf, who she married on Feb. 14, 1942, at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Auburndale. The young couple made their home in Rockwood, where she has lived for the past 66 years, being the longest living resident of Rockwood. For a short period of time, Esther managed the Schrimpf Restaurant in Rockwood and later, with her husband Joe, they owned and operated Interstate Petroleum Installation Company for more than 25 years, retiring in 1983.
A long time member of St. Anne Catholic Church in Francis Creek where she was a member of the Christian Mothers Society, she was also a member of the Rockwood Homemakers.

She loved and took an active part in the establishment of the boundaries for the Rockwood children to be in the Manitowoc School District, as well as the installation of streetlights in Rockwood. She was also one of the team leaders for the American Heart Assocation. A strong, independent and proud lady, she helped along side her husband, build their home in 1952, which she continued to maintain and live in until she died.
