He was born in Exeter NH January 21, 1933 the son of Carl and Edith (Garland) Fenderson. He grew up and attended schools in Old Orchard Beach. He moved to Auburn in the 50s and met his wife and started a family and a business in the same year. He owned and operated Auburn Sanitary Service for 55 years with his wife Ann. He took great pride in teaching his grandson Jason the business. Jason will proudly carry on the business legacy with the same great respect his grandfather gave to his customers. Wes appreciated his customers and went the extra mile to make them happy. He was in business for so many years, his customers were like family to him. He was a hard working man, blessed with a successful business and blessed many others with his kindness

in times of need. Not only was he a successful business man he was a caring loving and generous husband. He was an exceptional father who had great wisdom and influenced his children’s lives. He adored his grandchildren and he was the center of their lives. He shared his wisdom with a great sense of humor. His quotes will be passed on for generations. Even though the time with his great grandchildren was shorter, he already impacted their lives. He had a special affection for animals especially his dog Benny who he took for special rides in his pickup truck. Words cannot do justice to describe the presence of this man. He was a quiet, private man who spoke loudly with love. He will be greatly missed on earth. We know that he is rejoicing in heaven. He remained strong in his faith and is now reunited with his two sons, Mark and Ricky and many others that he loved.
