I worked out with Jim at the Outback Gym for years. I remember his motorcycle. I met with Jim and a friend from the gym at Foggy Bottom last summer and we planned to do it again. Jim was special and I guess I didn't know how much til I read his obituary. God bless his family. He will be missed.

I worked with Jim Lester from 1960-1967 at U Hospital, Purchasing Dept. He was such a positive and dedicated worker and an all around nice guy. I sure enjoyed working with him and very sorry to learn of his passing. He was looked up to by so many for his knowledge and abilitiies to get a very big job done for the Medical Center.

My parents, Keith and Janet Ford,(both deceased now) were close friends in the early days of George School with Jim and Joyce. The name Jim Lester was a household word often used. I have fond memories of the Lester family. John Ford
