It is with a heavy heart to share that my brother, Wesley, passed away at just 47 years old. His loss was sudden, and our family is struggling to process the pain of losing him so soon.

Wesley was a father, a grandfather, an uncle, a son, and a brother. He faced many obstacles over the years, yet he continued to push forward with strength and resilience. No matter what life brought his way, he kept going.

He was deeply dedicated to his job with the City of Los Angeles, LADWP, where he worked for 17 years with pride and commitment. He was also proud to be a member of the Brotherhood of IBEW Local 18. He loved all his work family!

One thing Wesley always made clear was his wish to be buried. Honoring that wish means everything to us.

We are asking for support from anyone who can help — whether by donating or sharing this page. Every contribution will go directly toward giving Wesley the dignified burial he wanted and helping our family through this incredibly painful time.

Thank you for your kindness, your support, and your prayers. They mean more than we can express.

Melisa and family
