Uncle Lester will be deeply missed. We haven't seen each other for many years. I spoke with Uncle Lester a couple of months ago we talked,cried, laughed, and prayed together. May the good Lord Jesus Christ cover all of us during our time of mourning. I love you Uncle Lester....

TO THE FAMILY: WHAT A SWEET, COMPASSIONATE, UNSELFISH MAN. I WILL CHERISH THE LAST TIME I SAW HIM. THAT MORNING WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK ON HIM RECENTLY & HE ASKED ME ABOUT THE FISH & GRITS I WAS SUPPOSED TO BRING HIM. I STOPPED EVERYTHING, PREPARED IT & TOOK IT TO HIM. THIS NEWS BLEW MY MIND. TIARA & JOANNE, YOU WERE HIS LIFE. OFTEN SPOKE OF YOU TWO. BE ENCOURAGED, WE WILL MISS HIM, BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE TO SUFFER ANYMORE.

To The Young Family,
It is with deep sadness that I write to you at this time. I have known all of you for a very long time, though it has been some years since we have seen each other. Nevertheless, all of you are in my thoughts, but mostly my prayers. Lester (Drag) is resting peacefully now with Miss Bernice, Joe, his father and the rest of his family who have gone on befor him. Be blessed and stay strong~~~~
