DONALD M LAMBERT

My condolences to the family of Don Lambert. My father, Fred Hermann, played tennis with Don in St. Louis and thought highly of him.

Don Lambert was one of the classiest people anyone could have known. I worked for him for 31 years and he created a work place that felt like family while being totally professional. It was an honor to work for him and know him. My sympathies and prayers to DeDe and the entire family.

My first office job after high school was at E.P. Lambert Co. Mr Lambert was always very nice and most of all, very patient with this young person who was now his secretary. My condolences to his family.
