Wes Spiker

I met Wes when he worked for ad agency in the Old Milwaukee Railroad building. We remained friends through the years. What energy and creative mind he had. What ever he focused on was 100% focus. My best to Chris and the family. May he rest in peace. Pete Hamper

Sure going to miss him. When he and Chris still owned Spiker Communications, we'd get together every so often for lunch and talk about local politics, NFL, our old business associations. I always enjoyed seeing him. After he started with the village, I'd visit when I was in Missoula on other errands. Wes never lost his sense of humor or his recollection of the projects we did together. He seemed to enjoy my short visits and I enjoyed seeing him. He suffered long enough. I'm happy he's...

Chris, so sorry for your loss. Please know I have thought of you two through the years. I have some great memories of our Spiker late 1980´s/early 1990´s days at the Higgins Ave and Main Street offices! Teri Johnsen

Chris and Family, So sorry for your loss of a great man! Wes was my boss at Spiker and was a tough to work for but we mutually respected one another. I learned a lot from him as his Production Mgr. Grateful for the Spiker experience. Wes was bigger than life and unforgettable. Rest in peace and enjoy fly fishing on the other side.

Our condolences to Chris, Jessica and Jared. No principal could ask for better Parents and students. You were the best. Rest in peace, Wes.

Wes and Spiker Communications were a great group to deal with and I remember him fondly in the many years that I dealt with him. He provided great insight and direction in producing interesting and engaging advertising.

So sorry Missoula lost one of its outstanding businessmen. I am sorry to learn that Wes is no loner with us. Wes was always so helpful to UM students. And he and Chris supported business school activities in marketing and advertising for many years. He was a great inspiration to young people and took time to mentor them. He had a great sense of humor the students always enjoyed. My condolences to the family. Mary Ellen Campbell,emerita professor, College of Business.

Chris & Families, I knew Wes from my time spending a summer doing my PR internship with Spiker Communications. Wes (and Chris) took a chance on a Missoula kid at WSU to which I am forever grateful for. Sorry for your loss of Wes.

Chris and family, I am very sorry to for your loss. I enjoyed working with Wes on a challenging project. He was always very creative and fun to work with. I enjoyed his humor throughout the project. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Sincerely, Dave Peppenger
