Lester Brown and I met in August of 1965 at Fayetteville State College as freshman during football tryouts. From that day a FRIENDSHIP of more than 60 years was a BLESSING given to us by OUR GOD. We talked, visited one another, attended homecoming games and certainly the CIAA & MEAC basketball tournaments for many many years until his illness. MY FRIEND will definitely be missed but MY MEMORIES OF LESTER WILL BE FOREVER LASTING. Katherine your husband and the father of Kelly & Eric was a GREAT GREAT HUSBAND AND FATHER WHO TRULY LOVED YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH. MY LOVE TO YOU AND REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND AND FELLOW BRONCO. From Leon Jasper, Charmane Jasper(Sorror), and Everette Jasper.
