To the Wells Family and Friends: I met Mr. Wells (Robert Henry) through my sister Irma Ellis about 10 years ago. I have known of him since the 80’s due to his profession in the timber business. My wife and I were always delighted to see and talk with him on various occasions when we traveled to West.  He was never a stranger; and was always cheerful and inclusive. We cherish the good times we shared together. We’re saddened by his passing and sorry for your loss. May your fond memories of him comfort you. With Sympathy, Maxine and Willie Allen
