I am truly sorry to know Mr Weller passed.He truly made student athletes stay comfortable. I remember first meeting him smoking a cigarette and he said your nickname is jscott.it´s easy for me and cigarettes don´t kill. Don´t tell my secretary because she smokes and thinks differently. God bless bob... he worked harder than what he was compensated for Sharon Taylor whispered I would but he smokes
