ALICE KAY LESTER
1977 - 2006


Alice Kay Bragg Lester, a longtime resident of Chandler, went to be with the Lord on Saturday morning, July 15, 2006.
She was born in Whitter, California, on September 14, 1942, to Henry Othel Bragg and Lovey Kirby Bragg, who preceded her in death.
She graduated from California High School in 1960 and afterwards attended Lawton School for Medical and Dental Assistants in Beverly Hills, California.
Soon after arriving in Chandler in 1976, she began working as a dental assistant for Dr. D.C. Pennington. In 1981, she went to work at Oklahoma Gas and Electric as a customer service consultant and continued working at OG&E until she retired in 1996. While employed with OG&E, Alice was a member of the Business and Professional Women's Club and served as the organization's President, Treasurer and District Secretary. She also participated in the Community Round Table and the Chandler Chamber of Commerce Combined Appeal.
