Wesley James Arp, 29 of Deltona, FL passed away March 29, 2016. Mr. Arp was born November 5, 1986 in Jacksonville, FL. Wes is survived by his loving wife Francis Danielle Perez of Deltona, FL; parents Charisse Feliberti of Grand Island, FL and Wesley Ray Arp of Jacksonville, FL and son Kian Lucas-Robert Arp of Deltona, FL.
Wesley served in the United States Navy for 6 years as a reservist. His time in the Navy included a call to war during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He served in Iraq in 2008 for 9 months. Wesley was a patriotic man, and being a part of something bigger than himself with lasting effect, was such a source of pride for him.
Upon his return home, Wes bought his first house in Deltona, FL, and shortly thereafter he founded American Residential Property Inspections a business that he owned and operated for the last three years. While building the business, Wesley took an opportunity to help with the construction of the Orlando Eye, another monumental undertaking.
Wesley spent most of his free time with family and friends telling stories, espousing his opinions, and generally being the life of the party. He met his wife Francis while living in Deltona. In May of 2015 their son Kian was born into their loving family. Kian, like his father, is energetic, happy, and has the same big smile that can light up the darkest room. Wesley was a loving father who emphasized the importance of family. He will be sorely missed by everyone who was ever fortunate enough to meet him.
