Not sure what to say?

Who is the most light filled guy in this picture? Wiley, of course! His spark lives on, and I love coming across pictures which remind me of what a fun and filled with life person he was. Always remembered and loved!

Wiley's unique spirit will forever live on in our hearts. His ability to live fully, love and care about others, while fighting his battle with depression, was truly amazing. Love Always and Forever,

Our hearts and thoughts go out to your family during this difficult time.

My dear Celeste and Family
I did not have the good fortune to know Wiley. However, this is a hard loss of someone so loved and your child. Know of my prayers and sympathy and wishes that you are filled with them during this time.
Much love

I didn't know Wiley. But I was so moved by his message - as his life as an obituary can - which in his case is so much! My heart goes out to his family and the friends he gave so much to; and they him. I can imagine the sorrow his family and friends feel. I am so deeply sad for your loss. On a lighter note: on behalf of him; I would say: thank you! For everything you gave me: I take it with me! I am about love! That is what you can keep in your heart!

You were a light in so many lives.
