I had the pleasure of working for Dr. Weier for a number of years. It was a wonderful experience to have known him and worked for him. His keen sense of humor and strong compassion for people will always be with me. He always spoke so highly of his children and was forever proud of them. My deepest sympathy to your entire family.

Tom was certainly a memorable part of my years growing up in Bluefield - a member of our special group (Margaret, Anne, and Madeline). My sympathy and prayers for all his family, especially his sisters.

Hello

My name is Dee and I'm the receptionist at Fairview Home Medical Equipment. I've had several opportunities to speak with Dr. Weir- he was always so nice and gracious. I didn't get the chance to know him as Leisa Lange, whom he worked with did but I'm positive that he was as wonderful in person as he was on the phone to me. I'm sure that he will be missed.

Please accept my condolences and take care with God's grace!
