Wesley R "Wes" Shuglie passed away at his home on May 14, 2011. His death was of natural causes and was unexpected. He is survived by Suk Shuglie, his wife of 31 years.

Wes was born on Dec 22 1941 in Greensburg Pa. He attended the University of Pittsburgh where he studied chemistry. During and after college Wes worked for Westinghouse where he held the title of Procurement Manager. This job took him to Korea where he met his wife Suk.

In 1981 Wes took a position with PP&L.  He and Suk moved to Lancaster County in 1981. At this time Wes worked for PP&L at Holtwood Power Plant. At Holtwood Wes was given an award for three years of Safe Production.

A loving and devoted husband, Wes supported his wife through art college and encouraged her to learn and improve her English language skills. He skillfully built beautiful frames for her art work as well as for many other friends and clients. He helped her establish her art gallery and encouraged her in continued art education.

After his retirement from PP&L he worked at his framing business from their home. He was very much a homebody. His hobbies were taking care of the lawn, growing flowers and vegetables and tending to his beloved goldfish in their pond. Another one of his favorite hobbies was cooking and grilling. He took pleasure in making meals and taking good care of his wife, as well as entertaining friends.

Wes will be missed by his friends, neighbors and most of all by his loving wife of 31 years. He is also survived by his 3 brothers: Bernie married to Christine Shuglie and Kenny married to Dolores Shuglie, both of Jeannette, PA, and Francis Shuglie of Pittsburgh.
