I met Bill Weber in 1985 when I first moved to this area. I became a regular customer and later a vendor at the store. I so appreciated his knowledge of health and supplements and even if I didn't always follow his advice I was happy to know what he thought as I respected his wisdom.
I am so sad to not be able to come to the services. I have been traveling and have some symptoms and so am keeping people safe by sending warm and loving thoughts.

I had the privilege of knowing Bill beyond his store and see a man who was fully devoted to his family, had a work ethic that is to be highly respected and always had a word of wisdom in any area of life to share.
I have always appreciated the time Bill took to talk to me, help me understand things and share stories of his life....they were never boring!
What a privilege to have been a part of such an honorable life and to be able to look back so many good memories.
Rest in peace, my friend.

" WEBERS"... Thats all Bill had to say when he answered the phone at the health food store. Everyone knew his voice and wanted to talk to him and his brother Rob. If you were serious about changing bad habits and getting healthy, he would spend his time helping you! He was, and is, a part of Greater Cleveland History. He once told me that people would ask him, "why did you build your store so far out in the country"? This was back in1952 of course. The store is still located on North Green Road and Euclid Ave. A lot has changed in 70 years, but Weber's is still open and operating on that very same corner.
Bill helped a lot of people get well and live a healthier lifestyle. He also employed hundreds of people over the years. Many of those people went on to peruse work in the health and natural products industry.
Bill was a smart businessman, a good employer, and a loving father. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends, employees, and the community!
I was a big fan! God bless you, Bill.

I was a customer of Weber's Health Foods. I had occasion to speak to Mr. Weber about certain things. He was informed and passionate about nutrition. One of a kind. He will certainly be missed in today's world.
May he rest in peace.

I was an employee of Bill´s and Bob and Clara´s for 1/3 of my life. I love him dearly. He was and is (since the soul never dies) one of the most brilliant, Interesting people I have ever known. Bill had the most fulfilling life; as he had much adventure in his long life. He was passionate about health and did not just sell people on products. Only if he truly believed an individual could benefit from a supplement would he sell anything. When customers came in with health issues, he would take the time to explain what he or she should consider with nutrition. Sometimes he spent hours, pull out articles that he carefully had cut out of magazines and papers to prove his points. But the encyclopedia was all in his head too, as he had excellent recall and the ability to brainstorm about health issues. Many people over the years to this day- told me he saved his or her life. Bill would only give people advice and leads to look further into matters. I run into people everywhere, all over town. His personality was vibrant and full of enthusiasm. He was and is proud of his daughter and son in law. He spoke highly of them and looked to them for their expertise in matters with people and situations that he felt uncertain about in life. And they were always there for him. So yes he was blessed with a beautiful loving family. RIP Bill you are loved and will be forever remember on the earth plane as you look down from above.
