I was sad to learn of Lester's passing, and my thoughts and prayers go out to Carla and the entire family.Brandon,I am fortunate to call you a friend, and while I am sad for the passing of your father, I am happy that you had the more recent past to discover how much your father truly adored you. You were blessed with a strong, hard working, talented father, and he did his very best to mold you into a strong, intelligent, businessman and father, in the only way he knew. I truly feel that as hard as he pushed you at times, it was only out of a solid belief that you could surpass what he had begun. Your father was at the top of his craft, very strong and proud, and I am certain that as much as it bothered him that his body was failing him, he found comfort in knowing that you were there to stand for him when he felt too weak to stand on his own.I am truly sorry for your loss, but so thankful that you got to rediscover your father through his illness, and to truly learn his feelings for you, in their purest form! Your family has displayed strength and grace through a very difficult experience, and that is a testament to Lester.
