Not sure what to say?

Rest in peace "Omaha". We had some farout times at NWMSU as roomies in 222. You know, the room where we painted the Darkside of the Moon on the wall. We had a groovy circle of friends in the Delta Zig Zag´s including me, you, Kleiner, Luke, Sam, Ronnie, Gundy, Bennet, Cheryl and others. Lots of concerts, Pure Prarie League, Qucksilver Messenger , and the nite we were coming back from the Leonard Skynard concert and came upon the apartment fire. We got out and quickly became firemen that...

I met Wes, (and Steve and Terry) around 1980 at a UP Railroad project in Hinkle, Or. Not sure what made me think of him tonight- a lot of unusual thoughts during this time stuck at home.

You are greatly missed. I know you always helped care for the folks and siblings. And you continue to watch over your family. Love you always.

Many years ago, Wes decided that his dad needed a puppy. So he concealed a puppy under his shirt close to his heart. Wes was the good-hearted puppy under the shirt of our family. He was fun, funny, tender with dogs and children, attentive to fish and game. Wes often brought out the best in his family and friends. Who's going to fill his big fun-loving shoes?
