To the last of the elder four great Weiss men I have loved the last 68 years. He was understanding of the young and teenage antics of myself and his son. In later years he sat, talked and shared with me our mutual but different combat experiences and through these discussions helped me deal with emotions I thought I was alone with. He is a hero in all ways. I will miss him, but I will love and remember Uncle Chris and Aunt Rosie forever.
