I cant think of any other friend that passed through my life that left a bigger impression than Weasel. I met him as "Lesley", then some guy from school (Sammy) started calling him "Weasel". And it stuck. Weasel was bigger than life. Into all the cool stuff - skateboards, bikes, motorcycles, cars, etc.... No other friend has or will ever matchup to Weasel. Rest in peace with your Savior Jesus Christ my ol'friend.

I grew up in The Forest with the Dempseys and they always treated me like family. Even though I moved and lost touch over the years, my memories of Weasel and Mr. and Mrs. D are so fond. My prayers are with the family during this time.
