Wayne Gersen wrote a sympathy message

“Jim Lemmert was a beloved member of the administrative team at the Washington County Board of Education when I served with him from 1987 until his retirement. He was a wise, insightful, and compassionate leader who always looked out for the students who faced the biggest challenges in our schools. During the years we worked together, I valued his counsel, his support, his sense of fairness, AND his sense of humor. He was deservedly respected and will be remembered fondly by everyone who met him.”
