Thomas Weiss Obituary
He is preceded in death by his parents.
He was a lifelong resident of Elk River where he graduated from High School in 1962. Tom married Diane Norman on August 8, 1970 and their son, Jordan, was born on February 20, 1972. He managed and had ownership in Elk River Lumber, Standard Lumber, and River Valley Lumber in Elk River over a period of thirty-eight years. In 2020, he sold Voyager Lumber in Ely and Sawtooth Lumber in Grand Marais.
He was a lifelong member of the Union Church in Elk River where he served on various committees and boards. Tom was a man of honor. He loved God and his family. Tom made a difference in his personal life and professional life. He was accepting of others, often placing family and friends before himself. He was a wonderful husband and father.
This year Tom will celebrate his birthday in heaven, where he will hear the angels sing. We love him and miss him more than words can express. We also know God called Tom to his heavenly home resting in the angels' arms.
Tom will be missed by his beloved wife, Diane; and his son, Jordan, who took great pride in having Tom for his father. Forever in Our Hearts....
