Born in Indiana in 1929, he joined the Merchant Marine at the age of 15. In 1950, he moved to Springs and started to build houses. After earning a general equivalency diploma, he became a successful real estate broker and developer, with offices in Wainscott and New York City.

He enjoyed playing the stock market, fishing, boating and gardening.

He is survived by his love of 30 years, Nancy Seek; four sons, Wesley Jr., Brooke, Gary and Kevin; two sisters, Annette and Nadine Miller; two granddaughters, Wonda and Naomi; and a grandson, Gary Jr.

A memorial is being planned for a date to be announced.
