Multiple sites are reporting that Ron Lester has died. He was only 45 and is said to have died from kidney and liver failure. I did not know he had been in the hospital for four months and was just moved to hospice and passed away only hours after he was moved there.
He is best known as Billy Bob from the movie Varsity Blues, which I just watched two days ago. I thought he was great in the scene where he shoots all his football trophies with a shotgun.
RIP Ron Lester.
