Good Morning to you all. I would like to introduce to my self I am Victoria the Loving Wife of the brother you are now all morning. There are not enough words of gratitude that I can express for the love I am receiving from you all. This was a senseless tragedy that didn't need to happen. As for the fact that I am the only eye witness to the hole thing I would like to state you all of you that please do not believe everything you read in the news or even watch on TV. This is a ongoing investigation and the charges that were brought against Wes's dad right now are this is just so they could continue holding him. They are still getting more information and when they see there is enough proof he will be charged with stiffer charges which Is my hope. With this said Reta, Wes and I had talked at great lengths of your family. We really didn't have much because of his back he couldn't work so I was the sole provider for our family. We still wanted to give everything we could to help you out and elevate the some of the burden. We were deeply sadden when we heard of your loss. I would like to extend the same invitation that Wes did on scattering Jeff's ashes. I will take Wes's place so I will IM you and with my number and if you ever need someone to talk I am here for you.

Jay Dee-
Total civilian disarmament would be a good start. Zero tolerance death penalty for first time offenders would be ideal. You gotta have one royally screwed-up agenda/mindset when your solution to people dying is to kill more people. 
You let the curtain slip, Jay. It's obviously and clearly about control, not lives. 
ETA: So sorry for your loss., Victoria. Stay strong and please remember that you have a huge family/support group on this site. RIP Wes. |

Victoria Seems you and Wes were well-matched. You are also selfless and generous, thinking of me and my family during your own very emotional time. I wouldn't ask you (or Wes) to make the hike with us. I would be honored, however, to meet you and the kids for lunch or dinner one of the days we're there. I'll PM my info to you along with dates. Victoria, not only are you dealing with grief at the loss of your beloved husband and children's father, you must also be angry at the circumstances under which he was taken. I wish you all the strength and fortitude you'll need in the coming months and years. Remember to find love and happiness in every day, in the little moments. |

Tragic. Just incredibly tragic. Wes was so kind and generous to Jeff before his passing and extended every kindness to our family since, still checking in on us. He had IM'd me to meet up with us during our trip to Montana to scatter Jeff's ashes and I hadn't heard back from him.
Donation made. More to come soon. All my best to his family. They'll need lots of love and support. Reta I still think about Jeff now and then. Thank you for keeping up with the Site and thank you for thinking of Wes and his family. |

Hard to believe that a father allowed to "camp out" on his son's property would go and complain that the son was being loud, much less pull a gun on him I am trying not to judge but who was drunk (Wes) and who pulled the gun (his sober father)? That makes no sense
