Lamar was born in Nebo, Louisiana on August 19, 1941, the youngest child of Ben Alexander Stringer and Bertha Elizabeth Williams Stringer. He grew up on the family farm in Jena, Louisiana. Lamar graduated from Jena High School in 1959, then went on to a long career selling heavy equipment across Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. Lamar married Vicki Walsh in 1965 in Shreveport.
