I write this with great sadness. On the night of the 20th Wes lost his life to a tragic incident at his home. He was a great friend to many and his loss will leave a huge hole in many hearts. Wes was an active member in the MT HTF. He was the type of guy who put all things on hold just to help anyone out. He truly did have a heart of gold. Anyone who had the honor of knowing him will never forget his off the wall humor. One of the wittiest guys I have ever met and he always made me laugh.
We have started a go fund me page to help his family with funeral costs and other basic needs. Wes leaves behind a wife and 2 kids. The family had some outstanding medical bills and now have this. Please help them out with whatever you can. Striker Approve Update 8/10 Just wanted to say thank you too all who have donated. We did some solid work. I have turned the funds over to Victoria and she was quite appreciative. There is still something you can do if you want to help out more. Larue has cimissioned custom dillos in honor of wes. 100% of the funds go to his family. They can be found here http://www.laruetactical.com/wmd-commemorative-beverage-entry-tool Please take a look and purchase if you can. Thanks |
