I will forever be The Girl for You. I will never forget when yall lived in the house next to West Edgecombe School and all us kids in the basement, you were playing the guitar and singing and making us laugh, and you made up that song Becky’s The Kind of Girl for Me! And through out our lives you have sang it many times, cutting up and making me laugh. I Love You my Dear Friend and happy to have had You and Barbara, Jean and Nell in my life as close Friends. You are now with Your Loving Mama and Daddy and can Rest in Their Arm’s forever. Sing on Wesley purple_heartpurple_heart

Very good family friend for so many years. I still cannot believe he is gone. Wesley’s smile could just light up a room. He had a wonderful sense of humor. He was so understanding and so easy to talk to. He was like a big brother to me. Wesley you will be missed dearly. I will see you in heaven, my dear friend. To his family and friends, I am deeply sorry for the loss you are feeling now. My thoughts and prayers are with ALL of you!
Marian and family, I was so sorry to hear of Wesley’s passing. I had not seen him since graduation, but I did see you a few years ago out shopping and we talked. I will always remember the Wesley I knew from school when he was cutting up, laughing, and just enjoying having a good time. He was always fun to be around. I’m sure he will be missed by all who knew him. Cherish all the sweet memories you have made together. With Sympathy & Prayers, Sue Rivenbark Carpenter
I want to send my deepest sympathy to the family of Charles Wesley Lewis The bible tells us we can gain comfort from God, even during times of sorrow. We pray to our heavenly father for help to cope with the sorrow felt from the death of a loved one. By prayer and supplication along with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God; and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. Philippians 46 May you find comfort by relying on our heavenly father and learning more about the blessings of God’s kingdom. Local ministry volunteer
