Bellas, Lester

So  sad I always like talking to you @ Speedway Lester, you are  with your parents & your wife. You will be missed. You were a nice man. Love you Loretta Heck

Lester and Mary were our neighbors when we first moved here. He was always taking care of Mary, my mother and me. A true gentle man. 

I had the privilege of Roughnecking with Lester and he was an Ace Hand that taught me a lot and could almost always have a better smarter safer and  eaiser way of doing things. But Lester was also a gentleman, scholar, and bit of a philosopher. And I believe anyone who knew or worked with  Lester would tell you the same and that would be in the thousands.

Mr. Bellas and his wife were our neighbors at one time.  If we were out in the yard,  he would often stop to chat on his way back from the mailbox.  Always so interesting and fun to visit with him. He was a good, friendly,  kind person.
