I know of Wesley through my brother, Dave Petty, and have heard many great things of his blossoming baritone career. Thanks to Timothy, I was able to hear Wes' lovely voice, so talented and musical. A true loss to the world. My sincere condolences to the Brax family.

Dearest Wesley,

May your bright spirit and love for people, music, and life continue to soar through the people you've touched and inspired. Your presence lives ever on. Playing with you at Tanglewood was a powerful experience I can never forget.

Fly, fly to a new beautiful life!

Wesley,

You were a light, a joy, and a comedian - well on your way to being a man of greatness. I am broken by your sudden absence from this life but I am bolstered by the fact that we shall meet again in the land of our Great and Mighty Father.

With Love,
Michael

Mary Beth and Robbie,
My thoughts and prayers are with you both in this, the most trying time in your lives. I can remember the pride in both of your faces when you talked about Wesley. May the Lord be with you in this time.

Wes was such an amazing, talented person. I had the opportunity to enter and leave FSU at the same times as him. He had the personality to light up a whole room. I enjoyed hearing him sing in the operas and other concerts as a soloist. He will never be forgotten.
He will always be in my thoughts, Michelle

Dear Wesley,

I miss you. I miss your voice. I just found one of your scores in my locker yesterday. I saw your hand-writing and I missed you so badly. I wish we could have one more chance to play through that Duparc song together! I miss playing the piano for you...
Rest in Peace.

Timothy
