Lou & Esther Brouwer

In 1950, Louis and Esther Brouwer formed their own construction business. While Louis bid jobs and built a crew with which he worked side-by-side, Esther was bookkeeper and interior design consultant. Louis spent much of his time operating the family business. In the early 1970s, Louis and Esther purchased several small tracts of land in southwest Tyler, MN and put them together to form Brouwer’s Bicentennial Addition. He served as the first president of Lincoln County’s Housing and Redevelopment Authority for three years.

The Lou and Esther Brouwer Memorial Scholarship is funded by the family of Lou and Esther in their memory.
