As everyone will, I will miss Wes. I always could count on him to do anything. He frequently reminded me that he would do anything he could to help out..and he did! His smile and great sense of humor always brightened the day. My best wishes to his family and friends.

Judy and family,
I'm shocked and terribly saddened to hear of Wes' passing. Wes was a kind, compassionate person with a constant smile and sense of humor. He often spoke proudly to me of his family at home, and he was always eager to volunteer to help out at work. It was a pleasure to have worked many years alongside of Wes.
With my deepest sympathy, Matt Klopp.
