I don't believe Wess ever missed a class reunion. He and Jennie made dancing look so easy and it was a joy to watch them . He has joined Jennie to dance once again. Rest in peace fellow classmate.

I remember Wes well from being home room buddies for three years. It was his wonderful smile and mischieveous eyes that I remember most, as well as his great dancing. My sympathies to the family at this sad time of loss. May the memories of love give you great comfort.
