He was born Kingston NY to Bertha Mae and Lester Russell. Lester grew up in
Kingston attending city schools. Following school he pursued several jobs and
a term in the U.S. Navy. The decision for a better life for his family led him to
California. Here he worked for the city of Riverside. Throughout his life he
pursued his passion for antique and vintage cars. This allowed him to make
many memories and develop lasting friendships. His cars, parts, and rust were
his happiness.

Mannie. Lester has two grandchildren, Brad and Claire. He is survived by his
bothers Norman, David, and Clinton. He is preceded in death by a brother
