Later Heri, Libby, Esther and Nuna rode the ferries up and down the canals until they could book passage on another boat since they were not able to catch the first one. Esther didn't remembe how they survived while in Holland, she thinks that a family fed them. Libby and Esther came on the boat together, the boat ride on the Atlantic to the United States was very rough, landed in New York 1923. They stayed at the immigration quarters for 2 months and ran out of money. A man who sold clothing sponsered them, paid their rent of $1000 and took them into New York for awhile, gave them clothes and shelter and they worked sorting clothing for 2 years. The girls then went to Denver, Colorado to find their father, who came in 1913. Their father placed Esther a family in Denver where she stayed until she was out of school. Her father felt he could not take care of her at her young age. Her father took Libby and Heri to Los Angeles, CA. Libby married Jack Eisen and moved to Detroit, Mich. After Esther graduated she went to live with Libby, found a job as housekeeper and childcare of a boy for a woman who was a stenographer and worked all day. She stayed with the woman for 2 years. .
Later Esther joined her father in Los Angeles, CA. She lived on her own but visited him often at his apartment in Venice, CA..
