Dean Lesher

Lesher was born August 4, 1903, the son of Margaret and David Lesher, in Williamsport, Maryland. His first business experience began when he opened a small ice cream stand at the age of 10. When he was 12, he gave that up for a job in a local tannery; his father was a significant stakeholder in that operation but he opted to let Lesher learn the value of labor. In his high school years Lesher found work as a railroad waybill clerk and was active in sports, playing football, baseball, and soccer. He attended the University of Maryland, graduating magna cum laude, and proceeded to earn a law degree from Harvard University. He was married to Kathryn Lesher who would die of cancer in 1971. He was later remarried to Margaret Lesher until his death in 1993 at the age of 90. In 1997 Margaret Lesher drowned under mysterious circumstances〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Margaret Lesher: The final humiliation )〕 in Bartlett Lake in Arizona while on a camping trip with her husband of six months Collin "T.C." Thorstenson.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lesher heiress found dead )〕
