I was so sorry to hear of Wesley's passing. I worked a lot with him while at Griffin Legget. He was always so kind to me, treating much like he would his own mother. I was very fond of Wesley. I know he loved his wife and children very much. He talked about them a lot. Even though I haven't talked to him in some time, I feel a void knowing he's gone. I know everyone will miss him very much.
