Wesley was the handsome brown boy of my white ex-neighbour Bruce and his Filipino wife Nerria, on Lulu Island. Wesley did not look nerdy, but was the technical type, following his father. Bruce was very technical, as he fixed cars and other machines and we talked about radiation shielding for space travel. Nerria babbled about Roman Catholicism, which was her love of life.
