First Video I Ever Made For ISS Channel

[@candyaldridge4796]

Hey Lester I cry every time I watch your first video. It was a miracle to see any of the animals alive and sad to see the loss of life. God always has plans. Lester just look how far you have came from that day. Love y'all and God bless you and your family and all the animals and feather's 💕💕💕 Lester the donkey's are my favorite and I love to listen to them and when you sing to donkey Dan it's beautiful ❤️

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Wow, thank you❤️

[@rebeccasimmons3536]

❤️❤️❤️

[@trinacastille]

I agree 100%!!!

[@alicebongiorno928]

I agree 👍 💯

[@danamoore1944]

I cry every time too and it breaks my heart watching it! Love all the animals and whole family they are the best! 🫶🌹👏🙋‍♀️

[@beckyweber6887]

The emotion in Lester’s voice when he sees Patty and Ima Jean gets me every time. 😢 what a sweet reunion

[@melissalindsey1081]

❤❤❤❤same here the beginning of a wonderful channel ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Wish I could go back to some of these memories ❤

[@michellemundell9589]

Seeing the reunion video for the 50th time I started to cry and that bucket shenanigans sure snapped me out of it😂😂 ​@@ImaSurvivorSanctuary

[@terischiech]

@@ImaSurvivorSanctuary You can. Just watch the videos. 🥰

[@galesteinhour4842]

EVERY time I see the floodwaters I begin crying because I know what's coming: his broken voice joyously crying out, "Paty Pig! 😂, followed by finding our ultimate Survivor-battered and exhausted Ima Jean❤. ...and then he amplified the pathos with the story of Donkey Dan and his rag tag-but determined-troupe. I just LOVE all those first plucky members of the "family" who forged the path toward a blessed new life for themselves...and for the myriad animals who ultimately united with them on the journeys that grew from Ima Survivor Sanctuary. 💞

[@shalyn24]

Through my tears, what has come over these past years since that very video. Truly special all of you hold such a place in my heart. Your unconditional love and care for these animals is what’s made us all fall in love with everyone. There is a day goes by that I don’t wake up and check for videos and get my daily dose of a smile. Your animals bring so much joy not only to myself, but so many and I’m sure I’m not the only one that will say how grateful we are to be part of your extended family, blessings as always love my farm family❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

This was so heartwarming to read. Thank you Shalyn.

[@njwpoo666]

You said everything that I feel. 😊

[@amybudahn7115]

Watch this video all the way through, you won’t regret it!

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thanks Amy. I appreciate that.

[@maryk.simmons8461]

Oh my Lester... This hits my heart every time I see it... This is how I found you, at the very beginning of it all, and I treasure each video that you create... I love all the animals and all of their stories of survival... You and Jamie are a match made in Heaven and I love to see your back-and-forth banter and playfulness... Hugssssss from Kentucky...

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

You are too kind Mary ❤

[@michelle-pappas-45]

Same it’s how I found them too I feel very lucky 🍀 a really tough last 5 yrs for me so glad to have found Lester and jami

[@cindykoresko3464]

I've heard this story several times and it stills makes me cry. Love that Donkey Dan.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

There’s a lot of emotions in that story!!!

[@peggysprinkles3925]

You walking up your drive was when I found you been watching ever since. You and Jami are wonderful video makers. I’ve laughed I’ve cried and enjoyed everyone of your talents. Even building fences was great to me. Glad you spent time with the donkeys. Your blessed!

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thanks so much Peggy

[@luahendrickson6276]

Peggy sprinkles we must have been in sync, that's when I started watching and have laughed cried and enjoy ever since.😊😊

[@kathywifall6844]

I cannot imagine the pure joy of seeing all the survivors, yet how the pain was for those that did not survive the tragedy of that hurricane Harvey. What a blessing ISS turned into for so many well loved, well cared for animals. Bacon and eggs, a great combination, but not from ISS. Lex is so handsome. LE has your pronounced jaw line---not being critical at all/or mean. He just looks so much more like you. No snacks needed when they have such wonderful foraging. Beautiful story and the bonding of those donkeys.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

It was a very bittersweet and heartbreaking moment..

[@jenniferwentland1736]

The more things change, the more they stay the same. - Alphonse Kar Lester, y’all may have gone from this first video, after Hurricane Harvey, to the 3 gorgeous properties you have now. But one thing will never change…someone leaving out those darnedable buckets!!😂😂❤Loved Donkey Day, they deserve it🥰

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Haha you bet Jennifer!!!

[@deannazandi1797]

Mr Longhorn, It filled my heart with love when you thanked God for the blessing of providing beautiful green, lush pasture, & fertilizer. That you thanked God for Our support allowing Us to help ease your worries. Absolutely beautiful, we all know it's, better & gooder when we can share with FAMILY & FRIENDS. 🥰

[@ACSS-hv8he]

I love that you addressed Lester as Mr. Longhorn! It made my day.

[@laurasimpson7211]

Donkeys are great protection and they are Precious!❤

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Yes they are ❤

[@donnagregoire371]

So many emotions in the first few minutes of the video ❤. I absolutely love the story of Donkey Dan getting in the trailer with the other donkeys, they chose you ❤ to care for them!! Thanks for showcasing the Donkeys I love them all so much ❤

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

You and me both Donna ❤

[@mariakempf3625]

I remember this. I never thought about our plight in Houston. That's how I found you. I remember how hard it was but you were amazing.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

That is how it all began ❤

[@Rondatompers.]

That’s a tear jerker at the beginning…Trudy just doing what comes naturally! Sure were tasty eggs! How great that Lex and LE were learning and working together and you teaching them was so great! What a great video!

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thanks for watching Ronda.

[@AlisonEngel]

LEST WE FOGET. So lovely to see the donkeys again. Danny and Ima are two of my favourites. Been following them since day one. I just want to hug Danny. He is the sweetest donkey I have ever seen and I love that you told his story again. So many animals didnt make it after hurricane Harvey and so it is so important to keep those stories fresh in our minds. People should go back on the old videos as they are truly beautiful. I often do to see those that have passed and those that are now fully grown like pig Trudy or Newton who were such funny piglets or our sweet Journey who was our inspiration along with Huckie. I could go on forever about the many sweet animals that are no longer with us, but they are still in my thoughts and heart. xxx

[@donnaangel7582]

I love this video. Though it was bittersweet and heartbreaking. Where I met you and the animals Lester. God has so blessed you through the years from these heart breaking moments. Much love to all the good hearts out there and to all the animals.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

I’m glad you enjoyed today’s video Donna.

[@lesliebiggar8143]

I cry everytime I see this Hurrican Harvey coming home video. 😢 Your raw emotion Lester was palpable!!! Then we hit the infamous buckets left on the ground!!! We get another palpable emotion!!! RAWR 🦁 We won't mention the tools left on the ground.🤫 😮 Finally we ended it with another palpable emotion with beautiful, lush green grass & beautiful happy & healthy donkeys & our sweet donkey poodle Indie!!!!❤❤❤😊😊😊😊 What an "emotional" video Lester on Donkey Day!!!! 😊😊😊😊 What a beautiful Donkey Day video!!! They knew exactly what they were doing & what a fabulous home they were headed to!!! Loved this!!!!❤❤❤

[@LindaWalsh-c3o]

Wow Lester!!! What a beautiful story!! I have always loved donkeys, hence why I started watching your channel many years ago. I have only recently started commenting. Many years of being "quiet". Thank you for all the love you show all your babies.

[@mendi1161]

I remember this beginning and I also remember the story of them loading themselves. It’s so sad! You are a softy to take those 5. Bless them and bless you. ❤

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thank you kindly Mendi

[@katherineholubowich]

The return home is the video I found you from, it was the compassion in your voice as you man it up lester found its spot in my heart to watch you get back up and i mean come on how utterly true is it we are all survivors of something. Thank you for continuing to share your life with us through the good, bye & ugly Great trip through memory lane & bringing it up to speed with lex& LE Stay safe 🙏✌️🐐🐷☺️

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thank you for being apart of this journey ❤

[@esculapiaxula]

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! The screaming sound when you see the bucket and the tools. Priceless!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@chrissybloulam2585]

🤣😅😆😁I know❗❗Best part of the video❗❗

[@trudijacques8494]

Hearing your tears of joy, relief and pride as well as the fear of the unknown was what made me want to find out more about you Lester. I'm sorry I've not been here from the start but as I approach 4 years of daily viewings on both channels my respect for you has never wavered it has just grown with each passing day. Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your journey, and thank you for helping every animal you have helped, even those little critters that you have tried to relocate because they've lost their homes to houses. That's all been done with love in your heart. I'm sorry you had to go through the trauma of Harvey, but boy that cloud sure had a silver lining for you and the surviving animals. You, Jami, and now LE and Meghan are doing such a wonderful job. Thank you again for all that you do 💜

[@angiemaney761]

Lester, you always make me cry...but they are now tears of happiness because I know you were chosen to bless these animals with forever homes and ALL the love they deserve. You and Jami are vert special people with hearts as big as Texas!!!❤ much love, prayers and respect from western NC ❤❤❤❤

[@angiemaney761]

That is supposed to be VERY LOL😁😁

[@judycline4211]

Its so great to see all that beautiful green long grass! Those donkeys & the donkey poodle are so happy to have all that grass to graze on. What a wonderful comeback for your pasture.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

You are so kind Judy

[@spiritchaser0071]

What a Great Donkey Day! I Loved the Story about the Donkeys.

[@valeriedulin1075]

From the first video that I saw of yours, Coming home to the aftermath of Harvey, I've never turned back. You, your family and your fur baby's story took my heart. I'll never be able to let go. AND THOSE BUCKETS 😂😂😂 That's where I am in this video 😂😂😂

[@tinasachs8688]

That moment when you see Paty coming your way - instant tears! All these stray buckets must really enjoy the sunshine in the pastures, lol. Trudy taking both eggs and walking away with them cracked me up! Love the story of Dan and the other donkeys loading themselves!

[@mmanente71]

Lester, The donkey story is my favorite. Every time I hear it, I tear up. Thank you for sharing that, thank you & Jami for everything you do for those babies. Hugs from New Hampshire

[@suethompson9481]

Lester, I have heard the donkey rescue story several times through the 😢years. It makes cry to think about all those donkeys being left behind. With no one wanting them. Thank you for rescuing five of them. ❤❤❤

[@mapuanakupuna3471]

Sheesh Lester, you had me tearing up in the first 2 mins of the video! LOVE LOVE the back story of how you got the name for the sanctuary!! 🌺Mahalo nui loa, Lester & Aloha nui to you all!💓

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thank you for coming along.

[@RachelRicheson]

Thank Lester for your kindness and dedicating Donkey Day to the surviving donkeys. Your first video is so emotional that it brings tears 😢. Ir is difficult to watch the devastation you and your family suffered and loss of animals. Once in awhile it is good to remember the hardship you experienced. Lester we tip our hats to you. We love you Lester ❣️💞

[@gayleduke3897]

One of my favorite videos you've ever made Lester. Such an amazing story that needs to be told again & again! Love the donkeys so much! Thank you for opening your heart to them &all the animals you've saved.

[@djahant]

I am so happy that so many animals have called ISS home and lived their very best lives there. It's a testament to their and your whole family's resilience and that includes Jamie. Much love! ❤❤❤

[@trudiharmon7640]

Amazing video from Beginning to end. IMA Jean and Dinkey Dan. Two amazing special donkeys. Thank you so much for caring saving Ima Jean and rescuing Dan. Caring and loving is what brought me to your channel. Take care have a lovely day lots of love and prayers God bless 🙏💕🤠

[@monshericreativecreationscdn]

I'm so grateful you had rescued those donkeys. Sadly tons are unwanted still. Ive gone to a few horse auctions over the yrs and it utterly breaks my heart seeing them only bought by the meat buyers. I wish I wasn't disabled or I'd buy some now. But I truly appreciate all you've both done for those you have rescued over the years. Ive been following ISS since 2018... before Run Maggie Run days. And its truly amazing to see how much you all have done to the Sanctuary to improve it and grow. Keep up the great work. Love you all! 💜 from near Edmonton Alberta 🇨🇦

[@janetlax776]

Beautiful Lester. Been watching since the beginning. What amazing adventures you have had & keep videoing for all of us! Thank you ❤

[@janetlax776]

Just love the donkey story! Donkey Dan called them back! Love this every time I hear it 🫏 ❤ 🫏

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Of course Janet ❤

[@dwnhminbama4275]

Oh,Wow.. what an amazing story. The love of the donkeys bonding like that was amazing. I wouldnt have been able to have gotten rid of them either. Donkey Dan has always been my favorite. He always looks sad.❤❤ that guy. Thx Lester for sharing the story with us.

[@carolripley8118]

This story never gets old! ❤❤❤ It was a tear jerker then, and it is now. hugs!

[@patelk3648]

Ive watched all your videos Lester...since day one. I watched and laughed and cried ....but the love for all the animals past and present has never died. Your genuine love for them all was immensely heartwarming. Ive watched your boys grow into handsome caring and loving young men...and watched with eyes full of tears as each if your babies left to cross the bridge. Watching Jami and you combine lives to become such a dynamic duo was a massive blessing. I'll watch until im no more ...as my days would not be complete without my favorite addiction.🎉❤🎉

[@shoenamcghee2199]

Just the thought of you coming home to find Paty, Meg and Ima makes me cry. I remember the story of Dan calling all the other rescued donkey's home to him. LOL Dan has always had a special place in my heart. God bless you all for the love and care you provide to all the rescues. ❤❤❤

[@trishmunson3456]

A very special Memory. Thank you for playing it again. The part where you found Imagine is what drew me to your page. I’ve been watching ever since. Thank you. You and your family does make my day everyday.

[@dawnchalmers7549]

Lester, it still brought tears to my eyes the day you drove up in in flood and seeing some of the animals that have survived the horrible flood! This was the day I found your video 😊out of the blue and have been hooked since. I’ve never missed a single video. And I’m so happy to see Donkey Dan has come a long ways from getting over his fear of being under cover of anything. Now he he’s comfortable enough to get out of rain or heat of the Sun. LE And Lex did a good job on their gate!

[@annettaweaver9056]

Thank you for this special video. Cried at the beginning and cried harder at the end hearing of the rescue of the donkeys. Thank you for giving them a loving home.

[@shilpihalder2133]

I'm a fairly new subscriber and while I knew about you coming home after hurricane Harvey to your animals, I didn't know about the beautiful story of Donkey Dan and his friends coming home with you. It brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much Lester for the work you did and still do every day❤

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Welcome to the family❤

[@chrisboles6801]

His son, LE, did a video a few years ago and told this story. I vaguely remember Jenny, and Forrest was the protector (friend zoned) for when ImaJean and Ivy had babies. I can't think of the other two donkeys' names...

[@jackielisowski1737]

Dan is named for Lt.Dan in Forrest Gump. They also had a donkey named Forrest. He was rehomed because he wasn't friendly..

[@cathyknight7631]

WOW - Beautiful story, I do not recall hearing the story of Donkey Dan before. Thank you for sharing.

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

Thanks for listening

[@Ramona57-TX]

Thank you for all you did to save as many as you could.

[@Heidi_Simmons]

What a beautiful story about the donkeys. I can’t imagine the pain and sorrow you felt from losing your animals in Harvey. So happy you share your lives with us.

[@joannemicalizzi5129]

That was a heartbreaking as well as a wonderful story about the donkeys. Thank you for rescuing them.

[@sheilajensen555]

I love to watch the first video. As sad as it is, you have come so far, Lester 🤗 The grass at ISS is looking great ! 😁

[@ImaSurvivorSanctuary]

You bet Sheila!

[@ZykaCharlie]

That story makes me cry. Letting all the donkeys come to live with Danny because they were his family. That is so heart warming. I love Danny. He is so smart. Did he go into a depression as each member of his family moved on to the sweet by and by? I have heard that the bonds that donkeys form with people, other donkeys, barnyard animals, horses, etc. are or can be so powerful that some donkeys will go into a deep depression and stop eating and drinking water. It’s like the goats kind of where they decide to give up. It’s the saddest thing I can imagine. Thank you for this video. It’s such a great reminder that things can get better, even when we are surrounded by darkness. After Harvey you had some very dark times. I know you still can have bad days, but in 5 or 6 years you and your wonderful sanctuary have come so far and you do so much for others. It’s truly a blessing. 🤗🤗🤗 Thank you for sharing that blessing! ♥️ 🫶 🙏 🤗 🤗 🇨🇦

[@sherylloftin-booth4423]

Lester I loved seeing LE & Lex and yourself working together they can learn a lot from you it’s never too late the more they learn the confidence goes up.. Thanks for the Happy Donkey Day story it’s remembering the bright light during hard times you gained a herd via Dan and the outcome was amazing. Ivy, gave us Pawpaw’s beloved Ivan, and your sanctuary namesake Ima gave us a beer drinking “best friend” Beverly who keeps us smiling.. ♥️

[@vickieestep7287]

I've always loved Danny...a bit of an Eyore and so sweet! I knew he was a Hurricane Harvey survivor that you brought home from the fairground but this is the first time I've heard the full story of how he came to IMA. Thanks for posting!

[@denaalfers7028]

This makes me cry every time I see it. Thank u for loving your animals so well

[@pamelabeasley2714]

I've been watching since this video after Hurricane Harvey. I just love everything about Lester and Jami. God has definitely blessed you in so many ways, and it shows with the love you show for each other and all your babies. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

[@lorettablakeman3335]

And what a beautiful legacy you have built since then Lester!What an amazing man you are,thank you for telling us the sweet story about Donkey Dan and his homies.They wanted to stay together❤🤍💙

[@shurst1806]

I remember this like it was yesterday. The day I started watching and I have not missed a video since. In fact I've never missed any Morrow video on FB or KZbin from day 1. My favorite channels and people and don't forget the animals all those who have come and gone. It's been such a comfort thru so much, fun on good and bad days and so much more. I've learned from the family and the animals, I could go on all day. This page and all has definitely been a blessing to me and so many for so many reasons. Thanks Lester and Jami for all you all do❤❤❤❤❤

[@sandyhammond]

That video of Lester arriving at the flooded property, will always make me cry. What raw emotion 😭😭😭

[@caroleschachinger2593]

Thank you so much for telling the powerful story of Ima Jean, Donkey Dan and his friends. Can you just imagine how terrified, traumatized and hopeless those poor babies felt after being abandoned in that horrific storm, injured, alone and unwanted. They must have been completely devastated. I would have totally lost it when they loaded themselves. That act speaks volumes about the intelligence and determination of donkeys. No wonder you did not have the heart to take only one. This is the first time I heard about Donkey Dan gathering his friends back together. What an inspiring, incredible, beautiful story. The fact that you had lost everything, yet had the heart to scrape together enough to rescue these poor pitiful donkeys, speaks volumes about your character and kind, loving heart. It is no surprise that God chose to richly bless you. You are doing His work. The donkey story alone, would make an amazing book and movie. Sending love and blessings from Michigan. 🙏🤎😍🤎🙏

[@debicorwin6978]

Lord Lester I remember your very first video and I have watched every one of your videos since then! So many happy and heartbreaking moments. I love all the animals and all the videos. Thank you for rescuing all those amazing donkeys. Love to all. ❤❤

[@brendagoodspeed443]

The True Donkey Story just got me in the Heart💘 I knew that you rescued Donkey Dan but I did *NOT* know that he loaded himself & all of the others. He knew that you were a kind man, Lester, & encouraged as many as his Pals to load up as well. It was like he was saying “C’mon, Everybody…this is our ticket outta this mess” So…. *THANK YOU* once again, Lester Morrow. As always..you are my Hero.✨💙✨

[@joannesinton9623]

Hi Lester, it really doesn't matter to me how many times I see the early videos, each time I find a little something I didn't find before and I love it. I adore all the donkeys (as it's Donkey Day, that's the animal I'm focusing on) but I have to admit to an extra special little bit of my heart goes to donkey Dan. He's come so far, given his reluctance to be in enclosed buildings. Watching how he used to stand out in the beating rain, damn near broke my ❤️. I love how he walks up to you all for some lovin and scratches and I giggle at how stealthily he manages to do it, scaring the bejeezus out of you all. He's a hoot, gentle and strong with a side dish of mischief ❤❤🐴

[@pattifoss8397]

I have always loved the story of how donkey dan and the other four donkeys just load themselves into your trailer. They were so ready for a home. That is such a heart warming story. It touches my heart just as much now as the very first time I heard it.

[@GramWolf_Wendy13]

Hi Lester, my friend. Thank you for a beautiful story of Ima and donkey Dan. You truly have come a long way. You allowed God to grow your courage and your strength. You went from practically nothing left to three beautiful properties and amazing animals and a beautiful young lady who loves you and I am thankful that you have allowed me to be a part of your family. May God continue to bless you and Jami and all your animals and your boys with lots of love. I love you all 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@terischiech]

I love the way the donkeys ditched and headed straight for bag. Donkeys have a very high value. The least of all the animals was given the greatest burden. Personally one of my favorite animals. Pastures are beautiful. Another great video.

[@Lynn-zm3uz]

Your first video was so touching, showing your heart and true love for your animals. Then, I have to admit, I've watched your channel for several years and must admit I don't remember having heard this much of the story of Donkey Dan. He and the others you rescued that day at the fairgrounds received such a blessing to have found themselves under your care. Y'all have come so far and can be proud of the heritage you have provided for your children and extending to your nieces and nephews. Bless you as you continue your work. Much love to you and Jami!!

[@cherylwatts2681]

Such a lovely donkey story Lester. I was crying when you said that donkey Dan called all the rescued donkeys and they all found their way to him. Such a strong donkey bond and bless you and Jami for taking them in.

[@rosierooney4307]

This made me cry to think about all the donkeys being left behind because people think they have no value so thank you Lester for saving donkeys Dan and 4 of his herd, such a heartwarming story ❤

[@pjmacgirl]

Watching these moments again is such a bittersweet mixture of joy for those who were saved, and sadness for those who were lost in Hurricane Harvey. I'll never forget the raw emotion in your voice when you saw Pati, Meg and Ima Jean. At that very moment, I knew that you and ISS were going to hold a very special place in my heart. ❤ Watching Ima Jean and Dan together was precious. You and Jami have found an extended family online, who will always love and support you. ❤️

[@amygray4600]

Your heart and soul has to be spilling over with joy knowing where you started and seeing what you have accomplished. ❤

[@jackielisowski1737]

The beginning... to now.. I m so happy I ve been along for the entire ride. The tools on the ground!!! Omg 😢

It was so good to see all the donkeys again, the donkeys are my favorite

[@adpeace2181]

Lester your lovely intro drive up approaches to your ranches with lovely music playing are perfect and traditional for all good shows. Good going! They really set the mood and tone for what a Sanctuary is all about. 😊👍

[@susancrass9396]

I remember watching this video and was absolutely devastated. I cried all day after seeing those babies and your reactions. I was hooked and have followed you ever since. I love all those babies like they're my own haha and have seen the transformations of all 3 properties. You have come a long way and deserve it all. You're a good, honest, kind, funny and hard working man and have perfect lady by your side. I love Jami and her take on things. Your family are now part of my every day too. You are what makes my day every day. Thank you for being there and sharing your lives with us all xxx ❤

[@hetheringtonfamily8798]

Donkey Dan knew you were a good person and trusted his instinct and knew the trailer would take him to a loving home ❤. He has been a blessing

[@amandaashton7879]

I loved this video Lester looking back on what you went though and the Donkeys to where you and Jami are now just amazing. Lester live is never easy but you took the bull by the horns and turned your life around you have a beautiful and amazing Family your Animals are all well looked after. Pawpaw and Gigi must be so proud of the man you are and your son's have a amazing dad to look up to you are someone that won't back down from almost anything. Lester Morrow stand tall hold your head high and tell yourself you are a amazing person then take a look at everything you have a Loving Wife , two Handsome young men sons , 3 beautiful property's and you also make amazing video's you Sir are living your dream. Lester, Jami, Le, Megan and Lex love you all. I am so happy to be watching your video's. Bless you all.

[@donnaanstey4790]

Hi Lester..that first video is what bought me to your page.ima Jean is a true Survivor.following and being a supporter is pure bliss watching all the baby's growing up and living there best lives.thank u for everything you do ❤️

[@rosemarycollis5094]

That was so sweet hearing how Dan called his family back together. I knew he had gone into the trailer himself, he must have known you were his happy place. I love your reaction to the buckets and tools left around the farm, take a deep breath, Lester, it will be fine.😂 ❤️❤️

[@kristinamay2290]

Always nice to reflect and review the beginnings of the ISS ,a very heartwarming rendition of a true story. Thank you ☺️ XO XO 😘❤️

[@trinacastille]

THANK YOU for the "donkey memory"!! ❤❤❤

[@BRITTANYSRGR8]

I have to say the same thing as the others. Listening to your voice/crying as you walk thru water back to your washed out house and seeing all the survivors makes me cry every time. Such a powerful video in all ways.

[@roseanncoffman-davis8485]

I would love to hear more about the other donkeys that you brought home that day. What a powerful testimony to yet again that animals DO HAVE TRUE EMOTIONS, that Dan got all the heard back together. 💞

[@amyfitch3005]

Yes I am crying and have the goose bumps. Happens everytime I watch THE HOMECOMING video. My gosh, I miss Momma Meg! Lester, thank you for posting part of that in this video🧡🧡🧡

[@teresacesario6926]

I started watching off and on maybe 😢2 years after Hurricane Harvey. I was hooked from the first video. Sadly, I have had events in my life the last year that had caused me to get behind on all the morrow videos. I have been keeping current and watching the older ones. Lester and Jami, i do hope you really take in all that you have accomplished together. You both go gang busters when an idea hits you and you just make it happen…it has been so joyous to watch. I know there is so much more to come…❤❤❤

[@lauradavis6524]

Watched twice on FB this morning and again a few times this afternoon on utube. Love the story of Dan and the donkeys. I found you in the fall of 2019 after I retired. Have heard the story of the flood and the donkeys many times and never tire of it. Love this video ❤

[@carringtonkelleybirnie4569]

This was another powerful video, Lester. With the opening scene came tears, and I love the story of finding A donkey, and bringing home 5. Thank you for reminding us of how ISS came into being. Love ya'll ❤

[@margesteinmetz863]

Beautiful babies that would give their life for you. They are special. 💕Ima Jean and Dan. Been there done that. Blessings to ISS.🙏🫶🙏🫶💓

Very sad to see the suffering you and your animals had went through , and the loss endured. No words can express the sorrow in watching your vid. Thankfully the lives of your animals and happiness in living their best lives goes on, thanks to yourself and Jami and Family. I've been watching and learning for more than 2 yrs now and never a dull moment, always a joy. X

I have loved donkeys ever since I saw a documentary on donkeys who were grieving a loved one's passing. It was so intense and deep.
