Marvin Weninger Obituary
Dr. Weninger dedicated his life to the field of psychiatry, serving Knoxville and surrounding communities in Tennessee with compassion since 1974. His decades of service left an indelible mark on countless lives, and he will be remembered for his unwavering commitment to the well-being of others.
He is survived by his beloved wife, Kay Weninger; his children, Keith Weninger and wife Martha, and Stacie Weninger; as well as his cherished grandchildren, Sam, Alyssa, Helen, and Haley Weninger. Dr. Weninger's love for his family was a cornerstone of his life and brought him immense joy.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research (MJFF) at michaeljfox.org in honor of Dr. Weninger's memory.

I worked for Dr Weninger while he was medical director at North Star Hospital in Anchorage Alaska. He was one of the most caring and gracious physicians I have worked for. He was also a supportive friend and incredibly kind. He often spoke of how proud he was of his children and his wife Kay; who I am sure miss him every day.

Being a psychiatrist was not just Marv`s job, it was his entire heart! In every friendship, including mine, he was always incredibly warm and supportive and problem-solving and caring. His smile could melt an iceberg!
