Julian "Bud" Lesser

i was his Dental Hygienist in Beverly Hills from 1992-1996. He always encouraged me to follow my dreams. I was heading to Prague to backpack and work as an actress and he even sent me an encouraging letter while I was living there. I still have it! He's the type of person you don't forget. Wish I had kept in touch when I got back.

Bud was one of those people you don't forget. I was his Dental Hygienist at Dr Durschlag's and Balikov's office at Brighton and Cannon, a place where we saw celebrities and The LA Raiders and Bud. He really become my friend. I was in my 20s and leaving to live in Prague to pursue my artistic interests and theater and he was always so encouraging. He was a visionary and saw other people's potential. When everyone else was saying no, Bud was there (as my patient) telling me to take the risk. He even sent me a letter when I lived in Prague. Always trying to help and cheer others' on, I am sorry we lost track. I would most certainly had kept in touch with him. He was a sweet, inspirational character. Someone I will never forget

Thank you for your kindness and support. Your last phone call encouraged me to "just go for it!" Just so you know, I did go back to school for another career...nursing...just like you suggested. Thank you. A true friend to the end.

I know the streets of heaven will be well guarded and photographed with Bud there. Condolences to his family.
