Bring Family, I would like to pass on my thoughts on the passing of Lester. I was fortunate enough to have met him over the past few years after he started to bring his Buick into my shop for repairs. He was one of our favorites and he will be missed. Best, John Muzik Owner Muzik's Auto Care Lorain, OH
