Phyllis Elaine Weihe

August 3, 1932 - November 24, 2023

Phyllis Elaine Weihe passed away on November 24, 2023. Born on August 3, 1932, in Lincoln, Nebraska. She filled her 91 years with a joyous passion for life, always keen on exploring new ideas and spending time with those she cherished. She married the love of her life, Ralph Weihe on June 16, 1954.

Phyllis was a past member of several local clubs, including the Hand Weavers Guild of Lincoln, the Lincoln African Violet Society, and the Nebraska Order of The Eastern Star. Her commitment to the arts led her to serve as a past board member for the Haymarket Art Gallery.

She is survived by her children Scott Weihe, Mark Weihe and his wife Tammy; her grandchildren Jacob Weihe, Kristen Adams and her husband Gordon, Lauren McKey and her husband Austin, Jarred Donahoe and his wife Ali; her great-grandchildren Skye Adams, Hank Donahoe, and Brooke Donahoe. She was preceded in death by her beloved spouse, Ralph Weihe, her parents Faye and Erma Shafer, and her aunt, Mariam Collins.

We invite you to share your memories and photos of Phyllis on her memorial page at https://lincolnffc.com/obituaries/, as we celebrate her remarkable life and the love she shared with all of us. No services are planned at this time.

Phyllis and I had the best conversations over the hundreds of meals she shared at Sips & Subs. She was smart, caring, and sassy. She will always hold a special place in my heart and I am better for knowing her.

Scott, I am so sorry for your loss. She was a marvelous individual and so supportive of education. We met when I was at Irving. She will be missed and so will her enthusiasm and energy.
