Lester Augusta Walker

July 19, 1941 - March 21, 2022

Lester A. Walker was born on July 19, 1941 in Camden, NC to the union of Walter L. Walker and Josie Clark Walker. Lester grew up in Camden, NC and spent many happy years there. During his early years he attended Currituck County schools. Lester later attended and received his high school diploma from Currituck High School. As a natural born athlete, he was also a member of the high school basketball team. Lester continued his passion for sports, becoming an avid sports fan that most refer to as “a person who never misses a game”. As an industrious worker all of his life, Lester started working at an early age in North Carolina and later moved to South Hampton, NY after high school. Once in NY, Lester met the love of his life, Ola M. Davis, and married her in 1962. Lester lived and raised a family in East Hampton, NY until retiring from East Hampton High School in 2007 after 34 years of service. Lester retired with his wife Ola to West Palm Beach, Florida. Lester kept faith and family first in his life. He was confirmed at Saint Luke’s Episcopal Church in East Hampton, NY and later attended Saint David’s in the Pines Episcopal Church in West Palm Beach, Florida. With sorrowful hearts, we lost Lester from our lives on the morning of March 21, 2022. Lester was preceded in death by: Josie Clark Walker and Walter L Walker (parents); Walter Leon Walker (son); and Delila Sylvester (sister). He leaves to mourn and share precious memories: Wife of 59 years: Ola M. Walker (West Palm Beach, FL); Son: Lester A. Walker, Jr. / wife: Patricia (Atlanta, Ga); Granddaughter: Tomisha Walker/ husband: Cliff (Connecticut); Granddaughter: Brianna P Walker (Houston, TX); Great Grandchildren: Caiden and Camryn (Connecticut); Sister: Brenda Brooks / husband: John (North Carolina); Nieces: Kara and Karla (North Carolina); Nephew: Larry Sylvester/wife: Tomikia (South Carolina); and a host of family, friends and loved ones to carry on his legacy.
