Johnny Weaver will always be one of my favorite people. He was a staple in my early childhood. We spent many summers at Aunt Millie's while Johnny was still living at home. (We were Grandma Bly, me and my sister Kelli.) Johnny worked hard but on the weekends he would load all of us(Grannies and kids) in his very fancy car and take us for ice cream.
Johnny also would come visit us bringing his current girl friend along for dinner. Now I know this was trial by fire for his girl friends.
I will always remember his sweet smile and that adorable chuckle.
I will always be grateful for his contribution to my quest for a Patriot on the Weaver side. With his help, I was successful.
I will also be grateful for his willingness to contribute his DNA for posterity for his descendants and our Weaver relatives.
Johnny will be missed! Much love to his family.

Judy, Jennifer, Janelle, Craig and families, I will miss John's sense of humor and smile. He was a true gentleman in every sense of the word. He always told me he would have the rocking chairs on the porch ready for me. He just beat me there. Love and prayers, Judy Haley
