Dear Family Many many many years ago I met Wesley and we because friends..just friends. I worked long hours at the post office, had a little girl and no car. Sometimes Wesley would give me a ride or do me a favor. Always a gentleman and always a friend, I look back to 1967, 1968, and consider Wesley an angel. an earthly angel. I am so glad I have a chance to say thank you for his friendship..I know he will see this from above.
To Jackie and family, I am truly sorry to hear about Wesley. He was a dear person. A friend to my brother Michael and our family on Oakley Avenue across from your house. Just two days ago I came upon an old address book and saw his name and address on Chambers Rd. Unbelievable that just today a friend told me about Wesley’s passing. May God and prayers ease your sorrow. My deepest sympathy to you and all your family.
To the Hereford family. My heart is with you and your family at this time of your loss. There is comfort in knowing God’s promises about the resurrection hope.

(Mark 5:41-43) I would like to discuss more with you about God’s promises. Feel free to contact me at (614) 870-2979. Love Your Neighbor Irish J. Richardson. Please call.
