Very sad to hear of the passing of a man who was loved by all. Wes was one of those all-around good guys. If you were down, he would seek you out, just to bring you up. He had an infectious smile and was very upbeat. Wes had enthusiasm for life, family, and friends. He was a valuable contributor to the community, and very kind and helpful to my parents during their final years in Liberty. The world is less than it was. If there is a heaven, Wes is there.

I knew Wes since high school & followed him when he DJed at The Place. All I had to do was look for a purple Camaro & know he was there. He drove that car up & down town all the time. You will be missed Wes! May you RIP!!

I first saw Wes in the town of liberty when he was a DJ. I'll never forget his Purple Car. You always saw him coming. I first spoke to Wes a few years ago when I met him and his beautiful wife Mary at Dutch's in Rock Hill. God bless. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
