He was from Leicester, NC (pronounced LIE-ster). linkWell that triggered a memory of The Pogues' "The Old Main Drag:"
Shane MacGowan sings "One evening as I was lying down by Leicester Square
I was pulled in by the coppers and kicked in the balls..." and he pronounces Leicester as "Lester."
The song's narrative somehow reminds me of Titus.

No CC so I have no idea what the story is in that song. And given who it reminds you of I am actually okay not knowing.
I just went years without thinking of Titus, could have gone even more.
FYI It IS pronounced "lester" in the UK.
