To the Lester's children, I have known Lester for quite a long time (50) years. He worked at O'Sullivan when I did and actually I was his supervisor for sometime. I was always amazed at how much time he donated to his MOM, stopping to see her each morning before coming to work. He was never mean spirited , nice fine gentleman and always welling to help when asked.. I can still see him stapling those boxes on that conveyor belt and putting them on a skid. Never complained much if he did he had the right to do so.. May God hold his family in the palm of his hand during these days ahead. Rest in peace Lester you deserve it.

Vincent and Timmy so sorry for your loss. Lester was a very sweet man. We worked together at Lear in shipping. And of coarse he fixed my lawn mowers a couple times. He will be missed. Always Cindy
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

So sad to hear of the passing of Lester, he was the best neighbor anyone could ask for. When I moved next door, he treated me like he knew me forever, not many people around like him anymore, I will truly miss him. Rest in peace Lester and prayers to his family and everyone who cared about him
