Established on August 13, 1995 when Elizabeth Brady Esstman and Lee Steven Crane met, and Incorporated on August 19, 2001 when we married. We live in South Windsor, Connecticut with our two three four children Sophie Maeve, Xavier Michael, Holden Brady, and Dalton Robert.
Beth has two brothers. Her big brother Bryan Esstman is married to Jill Lovin. They live in Flower Mound, Texas and have a daughter named Blake Katherine and a son named William Michael. Beth's younger brother Mark Esstman is married to McCall Pera. They live in Winston-Salem, North Carolina with their son Quinn Michael.
Our family branches out into Esstman, Beste, Crane, and Riegel. If you have any earthly interest, you can click on the family names to see the branches farther back.
Since all of our relatives are out of state, we were lucky enough to be adopted by several of our old neighbors from Wallingford. These are some really nice people that made up what was the perfect neighborhood for us at the time. But eventually it was time to move north and kill the commutes by gettting closer to work. South Windsor has really started to feel like home, and we're nice enough to have some exceptional neighbors here as well.
And of course, no dicussion of our family would be complete without mentioning the pets that have moved in with us over the years. The first generation has all passed on (Malkin, Samuel, Stimpy, and Gertie). But we were lucky enough to pick up a mom and two kittens in the summer of 2009. They are Alice, Clyde, and Zeke.
