If I am correct I attended Junior High School in Salina Ks with Wesley. In fact, he was my best friend. He was always kind and reverent. I will forever be thankful for knowing him. I’ve never respected anyone more. I’m very saddened to just now learn of his passing.

Memories of my beloved brother Wesley, today (December 16-our mother’s birth date), include many precious moments shared as a loving family. Truly a celebration of life! “For you will go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; The mountains and hills will break forth into shouts of joy before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands” Isaiah 55:12. Rest In Peace beloved brother.

My dear brother Wesley, your unexpected passing hurt my heart to the core because we weren’t able to say goodbye. We know death is the last chapter in time; but the first chapter in eternity. A thousand words won’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried; neither will a thousand tears, I know because I’ve cried. Rest In Peace brother, knowing that your family loved you so dearly and always prayed for you.
