Weber funeral services, visitation set

Times have been set for public visitation and the funeral for Forrest “Woody” Weber and his wife, Dale, who were killed in a car accident in Missouri on New Year’s Eve.

The first showing will be Thursday, Jan. 11 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. at St. Timothy’s Lutheran Church, 473 Seventh St, Menasha (across the street from Menasha High School). The following day, Friday, Jan. 12, a second visitation will be held, also at the church, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. with the funeral services beginning at 4 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial for “Woody” and Dale has been established with funds to be administered at a later date. As we get more information about the memorial we will pass it along to you. A guest book is available to sign at www.chicagotribune.com

If anyone would like to pay tribute to “Woody” Weber, friends and supporters ask that you stop by the Weber residence at 750 Appleton St, in Menasha, to pick up a Weber yard sign to display in your yard. These are signs left over from “Woody’s” previous campaigns and a display of signs during the upcoming days would be a wonderful tribute to him.

Meanwhile, “Eye on Oshkosh” has taped a special tribute to “Woody” and Dale, gathering together four people who worked with and were close to either “Woody” or he and Dale as a couple. That memorial show begins airing in the Oshkosh area Monday, Jan. 8 and will run all week. It will also be shown by Time Warner Cable in the Neenah/Menasha area – on both the local cable access and their On Demand channel. Please check with them for air times.

We would like to thank Mike Norton, Tom Widener, Nancy Barker and Stan Sevenich for sharing with us and our viewers their memories of these two very special people who touched so many lives in a variety of meaningful and memorable ways.
