July 5, 1937 — May 12, 2023

Esther Greenwell, age 85, of Middletown, OH, peacefully passed away at her home on May 12, 2023, surrounded by loving family. Esther was born in Middletown on July 5, 1937, the youngest child of twelve, to Stephen Botos and Esther (Dudas) Botos.


She is preceded in death by her devoted and loving husband, James Combs Greenwell, Jr. of nearly 59 years, her parents, seven brothers and three sisters.

Family was of the utmost importance to Esther. She was a loving Mother, wife, Grandmom, and Gigi. A proverbial hostess, her open doors welcomed family and friends for all occasions. Esther was also a Woman of God. A devout Catholic, she was a prayer warrior and faithfully attended Mass at her home Parish. She was a Parish Choir member off and on since the 3rd grade, including 40 years as part of the Bereavement Choir. She was a room mom every year during her 6 children’s span of 20 years of Parochial Education at St. Mary’s and John XXIII. She worked in the Fenwick High School Library and was a diligent FHS Booster Club member. She volunteered at Middletown Regional Hospital for 15 years and was a member of their Auxiliary Board.
