Not sure what to say?

Wes was a person i always wanted ed to be like He was a man of love and wisdom Always made time for me and gave me a love for his music We had agreed to take lessons from him to improve my breathing I still miss him and as i walk through the VA hospital i can still hear his music

I knew Horace for only a short time but I learned from because he was a humble loving man to all he met and a loving husband
His music was mesmerizing and when he was playing at the VA Hospital I would always seek him out he would always ha e a kind word he also knew if you were in need of his wisdom because he could always get you to see your problems from a different point of view which for always brought peace and tranquillity to bath my entire spirit and I would leave with a happy...

If you have ever met Wes he will ride in your heart forever especially his flute music it will envelope you especially connecting your mind and heart in ways you will never forget thank you Wes

I can't believe it's been 2 years since Wes left us in this earthly life. He is missed so much. Every time I (and many others ) walk down the hall where he used to play at the VA, his absence is sorely felt. His music was soothing, and he intended to be so, for anyone who happened by. RIH, Wes. So many love you and miss you. We were proud to call you Friend.

I remember Wess every time I go by his spot at the Phoenix VAMC and I can hear the melodic tones of his music which fills my day
He gave if his time to others in a gentle graceful manner to all when you exspirance this you feel God had touched you through Wes I feel blessed for the friendship with Wes thanks for this l am always beholden for wess Insights l am truly blessed for that

Very sorry for the lost of your loved one May God the hearer of prayers comfort you during this difficult time and give you strength. 2 cor. 1:4

Wes always gave me hope
A light has gone out in the universe
He will be greatly missed
Will his CDs be available and are his flutes obtainable
We were discussing my purchasing his G flute is that still an option

Our sincere condolences to the family.

Condolences to family and friends. Wes was a shining light in this world. Thank you, Wes, for sharing your love and music!
