I love my big brother very much. For the first time I am without him. My brother was a baptized member of Mt. Moriah Missionary Baptist Church. I know that he is with God. The last time we spoke, he told me to make sure that my daughter knows God. We loved each other very much but we would never say it. Our last conversation, before he got sick, he told me that he loved me. I am glad I got the opportunity to tell him that I loved him. Even though Wes is gone, he is forever on my mind and in my heart. Wes loved Malique and looked forward to seeing him. He would tell me about taking him bike riding and playing harmonica. The hobbies that Wes enjoyed when we were kids, he recently started again. In December, he was enjoying, playing the bass guitar and was going roller skating every week. It is hard to believe that he is gone but I can be strong knowing that we took the time to say I love you. Thank you all for your prayers, actions of kindness and support. God bless you all. Love, Roxanne and the Roberts Family. Roxanne's email: [email protected]

To the Roberts Family GOD sure chose a precious flower for his everlasting garden. Wesley, Roxanne and I grew up in Mt. Moriah Baptist Church together. I recently saw Wesley and asked for Roxanne's phone number and when he offered it to me I said Wesley I'll get it next time because I didn't have a pen. My heart is saddened that he will not be speaking with me or smiling at me as he often would. Roxanne please email me your information - I need to know you're going to be alright. To Wesley's wife, kids and parents I will keep you lifted in prayer and know that GOD doesn't make any mistakes.
