My Thoughts by Rhonda Martin...
God bless you sweet one in Jesus...we love you!
MY THOUGHTS
When I read the email about Wes going on to be with the Lord, my heart was broke and I could do nothing except cry.
He was a dear Christian Brother and a very special friend to all of us.
I know that I will sure miss Him. All the special thing he would write to all when they sent things to the webring .
I know the Angels in Heaven are Singing, just as the Angel in phote is saying Waiting Angel just to Lead you to the Master's arms. Oh just think of the joy Wes must know seeing the KING OF KINGS.
My Prayers go out to this family, and friends as they face the tomorrows that are ahead.
The Lord Jesus Bless each and Everyone.
Mickey My Prayers are with, I am so sorry for your loss, but the Lord is there to hold you safe in HIS loving Arms also.
If there is anything I can do please let me know.
If there is one thing we all know is that Wes Loved the Lord Jesus and was a wonderful PRAYER WORRIER. and for this I know that HIS rewards in HEAVEN will be Beautiful and Great.
WELCOME HOME WES!
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. - Ephesians 2:8-9
Patty's daughter Courtney wrote this beautiful poem for Bro. Wes...

My Dearest Friend Dedicated to: Wes Dixon
My Dearest Friend, You are in a better place no more suffering on more pain. You were their when we needed you most, Our shoulder to lean on our crying post. Now you get to Walk with our Lord Jesus Christ, while We sit back with tears in our eyes. I know I should be happy because you’re in a better place, and partially I am, but my heart still aches. I know your amongst all the angels now, because you had an angelic heart and you never wore a frown. Since your time on earth is up I feel my heart is trying to erupt, and I know I’ll go on, because I have you in my heart. God must have spent time on you because you were a work of art. My Dearest Friend I just wanted to let you know, all of us down here on earth can’t wait to be with you again. You’ve done so much in my life, moved me with how kind and gentle you are. My Dearest Friend, I’m gonna really miss you, but I think I speak for everyone when I say We Love You!!! With All My Love, Courtney P. Vernon

Thank you all again,

Trish sent this in from TLFC webring...thank-you dear friend ...it is beautiful and we love you! Lisa made the gift. Thank-you both! Never Alone! Always loved! Thank-you!
Dear Mickey, Eteam, and friends,
I found this on my page for my dad and Wes sent this in when it was a
very hard time, always thinking of others! We love you Wes!
This new version of the "footprints" story really caught me
off guard at the end...What a blessing JUST READ IT!
FOOTPRINTS...A New Version Imagine you and the Lord Jesus are walking down the road
together. For much of the way, the Lord's footprints go along steadily, consistently, rarely varying the pace.. But your footprints are a disorganized stream of zigzags, starts, stops, turnarounds, circles, departures, and returns. For much of the way, it seems to go like this, but gradually your footprints come more in line with the Lord's, soon paralleling
His consistently. You and Jesus are walking as true friends! This seems perfect, but then an interesting thing happens:
Your footprints that once etched the sand next to Jesus'
are now walking precisely in His steps. Inside His larger footprints are your smaller ones, you and
Jesus are becoming one.
This goes on for many miles, but gradually you notice an-
other change. The footprints inside the large footprints
seem to grow larger. Eventually they disappear altogether.
There is only one set of footprints they have become one. This goes on for a long time, but suddenly the second set
of footprints is back. This time it seems even worse!
Zigzags all over the place. Stops. Starts. Gashes in the
sand. A variable mess of prints. You are amazed and shocked. Your dream ends. Now you pray: "Lord, I understand the first scene, with zigzags and fits.
I was a new Christian; I was just learning. But You walked
on through the storm and helped me learn to walk with You." "That is correct." "And when the smaller footprints were
inside of Yours, I was actually learning to walk in Your steps, following You very closely." "Very good.. You have understood everything so far." When the smaller footprints grew and filled in Yours, I
suppose that I was becoming like You in every way." "Precisely." "So, Lord, was there a regression or something? The foot-
prints separated, and this time it was worse than at first." There is a pause as the Lord answers, with a smile in His
voice. "You didn't know? It was then that we danced!" To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose
under heaven: A time to weep, a time to laugh, A time to
mourn, and a time to dance. Ecclesiastes 3:1,4.
Funny how you can send a thousand 'jokes' through e-mail
and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending
messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about
sharing. Funny isn't it? Are you laughing? Are you thinking?
Spread the Word and give thanks to the Lord for He is good! Funny isn't it, when you go to forward this message, how
many on your list are not receiving it because you're not sure
they believe in anything? ....Sad. It's not WHAT you have in
your life, but Whom you have in your life that counts.... Think about that.
I ASKED GOD I asked for a flower, He gave me a garden. I asked for a tree, He gave me a forest. I asked for a river, He gave me an ocean. I asked for a friend, He gave me "YOU."
Send this to whomever you think of as
a friend..... I did.
This lovinly write up was from Debbie from our Eteam. Bless
you Debbie cause I know your
heart hurts like ours...thank-you
and I love you much, Robn
Tom had this beautiful dove on his memorial for Wes...thank-you so much Bro. Tom...
This is from Tom from our Eteam,
Wes and him were buddies on there and blessed us all with
there conversations...Tom was
going to see Wes if he could when he was going his way...so brother Tom I am praying for you cause we know your heart!
Good Morning Beloved Family, forgive me, but I won't be sending out any devos this morning for my mind has been on our dear brother who has joined our father in Heaven.
I just put together a few words that came on my heart that I was feeling.
Good-bye Dear Friend
We knew the day was coming, but we didn't know when,
then we went to the e-mail and cried out, Father you've taken our friend.
LORD, whatever you do we know it's for the best,
so take care of our brother you'll know him by Wes.
He's a soft spoken man and he's always good for a smile,
then he'll reach out in love because that is his style.
Although he was sick and his true pain was unknown,
he always prayed for others and never cried of his own.
Dear Heavenly Father Your All love and your will it will be,
but we ask one thing that you take care of Mickey.
We'll still look for our friend even though he is gone,
but he'll always be in our heart when we hear that word blonde.
Of this he would joke, but it was always in fun,
and his blonde sisters would remind him, we owe you one.
Our hearts have been broken, but one day they may mend,
but for now dear Wes we say good-bye dear friend.
With love from your Brothers & Sisters
Helen from our Eteam made a memorial that is so beautiful on her website for Wes so please visit it...
http://my.homewithgod.com/fromtheheartofgod/wes.html
(This dream is from Helen from Eteam written to Debbie on the Eteam as she saw Wes in her dream)
wanted to share it with you all!
Debbie, it was so nice of Mark to send this. I just believe that God was right there with Wes through it all and was with him when he went through that valley of the shadow of death. I had the strangest dream last night after I read this. I dreamed I saw Wes walking along a shadowy pathway and he turned and was smiling so big and he waved his hand at us! Someone in a white robe was walking with him and was holding his hand. I couldn't see His face but I just knew it had to be Jesus! There was this brightness all around them. I saw myself standing with a crowd of people, I couldn't see their faces but we were all waving back at him. When I woke up my face was wet with tears but I felt such a warm feeling and such a feeling of peace and joy for Wes. I still had that feeling wihin me when I woke up this morning! I just began praising the Lord! I've never had a dream like that before but it was just so wonderful and I just had to share it with you. Love, Helen

Bro. Tim wrote this to the Eteam
and made this graphic in Memory of our Brother in Chirst.
Hello My Brother's and Sister,s in Christ,
Below I inserted the obitutuary from the funeral home that will be having Bro. wes, service, I hope that you will find this of interest.
I never met Bro. Wes in person but I enjoyed our fellowship on the E-Team. I, we all will miss our brother, what a sense of humor and insight he had, of course being from West Virginia he had to have these. I was greatly saddened by his death, I often thought of him and all the rest of the E-Team. I thought to myself often, I wonder what they are doing. I imagined Wes pouring it on Patty with the smilies, what a time we had. We laughed, we cried, we prayed together, oh what a fellowship we had. We all will miss Bro. Wes. I must confess I woke up around 3:00 am Friday morning thinking of Wes, I missed him, I experienced a great loss. I had to get out of bed get by myself and think about Wes, I miss him. I know that all the members of the E-Team experience the same feeling that I do. Every time I turn this old puter on I think of Wes and his smilies. I'm not not like our Bro. Jim or our sweet sister Pearlie, they have such a gift of putting word's together, but I can say that I miss Wes.
With Christian Love, Bro. Tim

In Memory of Bro. Wes
It is hard to know where to start in this memory of our Bro. Wes,
He was a blessing, prayer partner for Jesus, and a brother to us all,
His love for Jesus was shining throughout his emails in all his best,
He would make us laugh with smiley's and you could tell he cared
for everyone by his gentleness...
Yes, Bro. Wes helped us all in the love of Christ,
he shared his happiness, his joy, his creativity with our group,
his website was a blessing and you knew he love kids,
I know others have known him longer in our group,
but I guess it was somewhere last year in 2004 when
I joined in...and what a blessing to see how Wes
would come alive on our eteam and was always praying for us,
or others as the requests did come in, and yes, E-cards he
would send...now he's gone...yes, we all have shared our tears,
but not for long cause you know my friend,
time is short, and Jesus is coming again!
So in Memory of Wes and our Eteam that
cared so much for this Christian man...
we pray for others to get saved so they can
go to heaven with Wes, in that heavenly land!
We will see you again Wes over in Gloryland
where we will never say good-bye Bro. Wes again.
Your interrupting angel...and one of your blonde christian friends from our Eteam for Encouragement, that liked to tease along with the rest about the blondes only in fun! We love
you so much in Christ and shall miss you greatly...you left with a testimony for Jesus!
Love in Christ, I thank Jesus for Wes,
and all he did in my life also...tears
are truly a language to our God. Robin
OUR ETEAM WILL MISS BRO. WES
SO MUCH! NOW HEAVEN'S FULL OF JOY CAUSE HE IS THERE WITH THE KING OF KINGS, WE WILL SEE WES ONE DAY SOON AND THIS TIME NO COMPUTERS! NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN! WE LOVE YOU WES!
Psalm 23
Robin,
I will be keeping his family in my prayers. I know that he is with Jesus now and his family needs our prayers.
If tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did today, While thinking of the many things, We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, As much as I love you, And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand, And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind All those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye For all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do, It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you. I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile. But then I fully realized,
That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of me. And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss, come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow. But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home, When God looked down and smiled at me, From His great golden throne. He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew. I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last, And since each day's the same way There's no longing for the past. You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true, Though there were times you did some things You knew you shouldn't do. But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free. So won't you come and take my hand And share my life with me? So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart. For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart.
Hello Debbie,
Wes touched so many of us, and all of you, the fellowship he had with you all meant so much to him. I knew he was a computer, Internet addict :), Mom and I didn't realize how much his Internet family loved him until he passed, and all the kinds words, email, phone calls and beautiful web pages were made with love and a testimony to him.
Thank you for sharing the pages with me, I will show them to Mom, and I know how much they will comfort her.
I wanted to get a message to all of you, to let you all know how thankful we are for you all. I wanted to share with you all personally how Wes left us so suddenly, to go home to be with the Lord in just a matter of moments.
All of our family, myself, all of my Mom's brothers and sisters are all going to church this morning, The church that Mom and Wes belonged to, was his favorite place to be on this earth.
God bless all of you,
Mark
