Donald John Yeskey, Jr. resided in Greensburg, PA through his high school graduation before his army service took him to Japan, followed by a career bringing him to Fort Meade, MD. Don lived the remainder of his life in Crownsville, MD interspersed with three-year stints in Cheltenham, England and Wiesbaden, Germany. Here in Arden on the Severn, Don was part of the original ACA Beach Buying Committee and became the first ABI President of Arden Beaches, Inc. in 1976. He also served as the spokesperson for the ACA with the General's Highway Community Council for many years. He was a loyal employee of the National Security Agency, a dedicated community activist and conservationist, proud patriot, U.S. Army veteran, an avid collector with an eye for variations, genealogist, and local historian. Don's commitment to community was admirable and he will be greatly missed.

Esther Ansley Whitehair died at the age of 99. She was a 65-year resident of Crownsville and is likely the oldest resident of Arden at almost 100. She was born in Chariton, IA on October 29, 1921. She moved to the area in 1941 after graduating high school and accepting a career in government, working for the US Navy, Air Force, and NSA throughout her many working years. While working in Washington, D.C., she met her husband Howard, of 59 years. Esther was a devoted member of South Shore Baptist Church and an active member of the ACA Seniors Club. She loved her cats and enjoyed serving as a volunteer with her church, reading, crocheting, and watching game shows.
