Fred was my classmate at Sidney High School. He was an enthusiastic member of our marching band. He was kind, quiet, and encouraging to others. It was an honor to know him.

While I was not in band, I did participate in Lima Senior's music programs and marching band. Fred Weymer was proud to be Lima Senior High School's band director. He was passionate and enthusiastic as others have mentioned. Fred Weymer, the music of your life plays on. May you take your rest now. Peace be with you and your family at this time.

Mr.Weymer was a loved music teacher. He taught me from South Jr. High through LSH. I can still see him on the podium, conducting with much enthusiasm. It was such a great experience! Thanks for the challenges and the kindness, Mr.Weymer. Rest in peace.

Mr. Weymer was my band director at Faurot, North, and Lima Senior. 5th grade -12th grade. He was the best and considered a family friend. I remember having him at our home for a meal. Many great memories of him over the years. He engrained the love of music into me and my siblings. I even took private clarinet lessons from him a couple years, before I switched to bassoon. Everyone who had him as a band director loved him.
