Because the damage caused by the hurricane was not severe, the name "Esther" was not retired. However, the name has not been used since, as it was removed when formal hurricane name lists were created in 1970.

Famous quotes containing the words impact and/or aftermath:
“Too many existing classrooms for young children have this overriding goal: To get the children ready for first grade. This goal is unworthy. It is hurtful. This goal has had the most distorting impact on five-year-olds. It causes kindergartens to be merely the handmaidens of first grade.... Kindergarten teachers cannot look at their own children and plan for their present needs as five-year-olds.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
“The aftermath of joy is not usually more joy.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
