Mary - I was so sorry to read of Bill's passing. Please accept my sincere condolence. He was a very special & bright man. He & Ron spent so many enjoyable hours together going back & forth to work. He was certainly one of Ron's favorites. My prayers are with you and your family.

Mrs. Weig, Laurie and Family...I was so sorry to hear the news. I know the pain you're going through! We feel so blessed to have had Mr. Weig be a pallbearer for my Dad. They were great friends and had lots of good times together!
If there is anything I can do...(Laurie..if you ever need to talk) please don't hesitate to contact me.
I know this is very difficult on all of you, but at least you know that he isn't suffering anymore.
Love to all
Sandi

Mary Dear and Family,
One would have quite a time trying to find a nicer or better man than Bill Weig. His enthusiasm about everything was inspiring -- being in his company was always a treat. My sincere condolences to all the family -- such a tremendous loss!
With deepest sympathy, Rita

Dear Weig Family,

Just a note to let you know how much I admired Bill. I worked with him at Delphi for a number of years. He was always kind, cheerful and a joy to be around. Also, he was a true professional in his work. You can be duly proud of your husband, father, grandfather, in-law, etc. He was a fine man in every sense of the word.
