Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
To our dear friends the Lester family. I am Dick Sutter, dad of Tom, Dick,Harold, Holly and Chris. We lived on Vassar when you lived on Roosevelt . I had planned to come to the Rosary tonight but the weather is so bad and at my age I rather not get out. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Dick and Kathleen Sutter

Dear Lesters, I read with sorrow about the passing of Wyrill in the paper today. I can only guess at the pain you all must be feeling. She and Bert were long time friends of my family and my earliest memories of her go back to 1960. She was a lady through and through, and one that always had a smile on her face and warmth in her heart. She could tell a story with great charm and wit, and was a pleasure to be around because of her charm and love of life. I had the pleasure of visiting with her this summer and am so thankful that we had that opportunity. Once again, she was warm, positive, and caring. She possessed such pride and love for her family. Hold fast to the many wonderful memories you have of her, for they are a permanent part of you and will always be there for you to enjoy. You and yours are in my thoughts and prayers. Fondly, and sincerely, Jinx Moore
Our thoughts and prayers are with you,Mark, and family.
We all lost a real lady. You lost a great mom. Please accept our deepest sympathies. You all are in our prayers. Rea and Tom Ruane
