Weaver should still be with us to make the world a better place, but in this imperfect world, nothing lasts forever. I loved Weaver for the many conversations we had, his keen insight into people even as a teenager in high school, his dry humor, and for his loving ways. Go With God Gracious young man…..my condolences to the family.

Ronnie. I haven’t seen you in many years, but have kept track of your life through friends. Those friends talked about how much you loved your family so I know your heart is broken.

Peace, and many happy memories of Weaver be with you all.
