Lester Austin Obituary, Death – I can’t tell you how much of a gift it has been to hear how much he was loved, not only for Lester but also his family and especially his children. All the love he put into the world, he received back when he needed it most. We are so sad to share that Lester passed away last night, May 26, 2023 at 9:15pm. With that said, his final days were spent surrounded by family and friends, sharing thoughts and memories that brought a smile to his face even through his pain.
Lester was a kind, giving and loving man, who had a gentle soul and the gift of making everyone around him feel special. In spite of his discomfort, he managed to smile during his dying days while spending them with family and friends and sharing thoughts and memories. Lester was a lovely person with the ability to make everyone around him feel unique. He was kind, generous, and loving. Though he will be sorely missed, have trust that he is watching over us all. Gina, let Lester rest in peace.

Actually, Lester played a role in the beginning of our love affair. When Timberlane’s enormous gym was located down by the tennis courts, Tom and I first met there. Lester was a constant source of brightness and presence. He and Tom both like boxing.
