This gala event took place at the International Ballroom of the Hilton Chicago on Michigan Avenue. Lester was joined by many of his family members including his three children and their families, his sisters and their families and many close friends, business associates, and of course his staff from both the Chicago and Fenton locations. This is a well deserved award for Lester as he is a true humanitarian in all of our hearts. He has touched each one of his employees (whom he considers family) lives in special ways. We are all honored to be able to work for and with him. On September 11, 2004 Lester was also recognized by his high school and was inducted into the Mendel High School Hall of Fame. This event took place at St. Rita High School (Chicago, IL) during a half-time show and followed by a reception at the Hall of Fame. Lester was very proud to accept this honor and was also supported by many family members as well has several friends and staff from his Chicago office. On September 12, 2004 Lester celebrated his Forty-Fifth Class Reunion at Christ The King. This celebration took place at the William Tell Holiday Inn in Countryside, IL. Many of the classmates made the reunion making this reunion their biggest success ever. Lester Trilla played a major roll in the success of this event. He has personally been planning this event for the past couple years and has kept in close contact with many of the graduates. It was a great night for all.
