Wesley's dad

As most all of you know Wesley's dad, Justin, passed away the beginning of this month. I don't know if a little boy ever adored his dad as much as Wesley did his. He thought that man walked on water. It's been really tough for Wesley to have him gone, but he is doing good. There are several people that asked me for a copy of the talk that he wrote and spoke at the funeral. Wes wrote it all on his own and did such a great job. I thought I would put it here so that those that wanted a copy could take it from here.

I remember when my dad and I used to go up the canyon on our snowmobiles, he would always try to do crazy tricks. I would try to follow him and get stuck. I think that thats alot like what was happening to him. He was trying to show someone that he could do it but he got stuck. Like someone said to me he felt like he was locked in a dark closet and couldn't get out. I remember when we rode our four wheelers up the switch backs. Once we found this cave and we went pretty far in. Then my dad wanted to scare me by turning off the flashlight. Thats what happened to him, he was in a deep dark cave and someone turned out the light. One of the funnest things we used to do was riding our bikes to Salem pond and looking for snakes and bugs in our neighborhood. I will always remember the fun things we used to do.

My heart breaks for my little boy. He's such a tough kid.
