"Angell....What the hell kinda name is Angell, for a cop?" That was my very first introduction to Wes Hill. That was 32 years ago last February. He became one of the best friends I will ever have in this life! For all of you that know Wes understand how easy that transition was. I will not forget him. With a broken heart....Sgt. Bruce Angell-Ret.

Donna - my sincere condolences to you and your family. It seems so long ago when you, Wes, Al, Mary Ellen and your families moved onto Lori Circle. You all were the true definition of what neighbors should be and I know that Wes will be missed.

I have not seen Wes in a long while. We were, at one time, very close friends. We worked together at the Shipyard in security, and spent time doing things after work. He was a good friend, but as sometimes happens in life, you lose contact. I offer my sincere sympathies to his family. Mark Garrett
