Beloved Cousin  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/121978365/sherilyn-g-weiler Sheri is the only child of Joyce and Harvey (Buzzy) Somers .  She was born June 24, 1958 and passed away on April 20, 2000. Sheri was married to Steve Weiler and they had one daughter, Christy. She is missed and loved by many.  Sheri had a love for adventure and life. I will always remember her beautiful brown eyes lighting up with laughter and joy when we played together as children.  I also remember sharing my Christian testimony with her a few years before her death and how she railed at me for becoming a Christian. Then when she became very ill with kidney failure due to Type I Diabetes, she graciously reassured me that she had made her peace with the Lord Jesus Christ and everything was "all right."  Sheri knew her health was failing and showed no fear of death. She had a true, saving faith and I look forward to our reunion in Heaven at the feet of our Great King

This is our petite, but feisty Great Grandmother Maggie Leona (Wright) Weaver with Great Grandfather William Izear Weaver. He could very well be our "Blackfoot" connection - he looks native! Family folklore is he was such a good ball player that he was recruited to play professional baseball, but Great Grandmother wasn't going to have him off traveling the country while she farmed alone, so he wisely chose to stay in Arkansas with the lovely Maggie.
