Esta Hansen

Esta Hansen, a devoted mother, accomplished pianist, and kind-hearted individual, passed away peacefully in her sleep on October 25, 2025, at her home in Granbury, Texas. Born on August 11, 1944, in Houston, Texas, Esta lived a life marked by her deep love for family and her commitment to helping others.

Esta pursued higher education at the University of North Texas, where she met her beloved husband, Philip Hansen. Together, they shared 59 years of marriage, full of love and companionship. Esta was a devoted mother to her two sons, Randall Hansen and Paul Hansen, and embraced her role as a loving mother-in-law to Carole Hansen. Her family blossomed with the addition of grandsons Cooper Hansen and Parker Hansen, with whom she cherished every moment spent together.

An accomplished pianist, Esta found great joy in sharing her musical talent with others, performing at home, church, and various events.

Esta will be dearly remembered not only for her impressive accomplishments but also for the unwavering love and kindness she offered to those around her.
