Lonnie was born on April 9th 1954 in the mountains of Majestic, Kentucky. He is survived by daughter Tara Lester, Brothers Robert and Bill Lester, Sister Catherine Mae Cash, Adopted Sister Mary Hartley, grandchildren Devon Lester, Mickayla Mickenzie Hunter Hashman, Jeremy, Harley Roberts, 7 great grandchildren, cousins, nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and friends.
Lonnie Lester worked hard and became one of the best brick masons. He took pride in every brick or stone he laid. Lonnie welcomed almost anyone he met with a smile. By the time you left, you were part of his family.
Lonnie loved to fish, four wheel, listen and play music, and spending time watching television. He adored all his pets. He is leaving behind dogs, cats, fish, a crazy turtle and his hairless dogs, iguanas.
Lonnie would love to get people by playing tricks. When the illness started making his life difficult he decided he would instigate everyone and laugh about it for his own amusement. He tried to be strong all the way to the end. He will be missed every day.
Special thanks to Deidre Tyree for spending time looking after Lonnie. You have really kept his spirits up.
