We miss you Uncle Wes! I still have a beautiful picture of when we walked the beaches of the west coast, looked for sea shells and laughed together. Such unforgettable memories. Much love!

We will miss Wes and his kind, gentle nature, quick sense of humor, and hearty laugh. He was a wonderful brother-in-law.
