Reading Wes’ commentary on Twitter during games was a staple for me. After 9 years of following, his constant presence became synonymous with Tennessee sports. Even learned quite a bit from reading and hearing his insights. He truly was one of a kind and had a larger impact on so many others, myself included. I’m so sorry for your family’s loss and will be praying for peace and comfort.
