Wes,
I remember the first time I ran into you, you were the detective called out to a scene I was primary on when I was in training. You gave me my first impression of what a detective should be. Since that day a little under 5 years ago you have been a great source of knowledge when I had a question and a good person to talk to. You are going to be missed here! Until we meet again, watch out over us while we continue the work down here.
