He later united in marriage to Pamela Miles in 1980. He proudly served in the US Army for 7 years earning medals for his expertise with the M-16 and hand grenades. Dan was a jack of all trades and could fix anything that ran on gasoline. If he couldn't, it was beyond repair. He was very particular when it came to how things were done. He would help absolutely anyone, had a huge heart, a good sense of humor and liked to have fun! He enjoyed watching Jeff Gordon and Chase Elliot race NASCAR, loved fishing, camping, spending time on the lake and being outside. He also really loved his dog, "Buddy Boy Weidner". Dan is survived by his wife of 45 years, Pam; his 3 sons, Dan (Lisa) Weidner, Jerry (Jessie) Weidner and Jamie (Jan) Miller; 11 grandchildren; 1 great-grandchild; siblings, Kay (Don) Mosure, Kathy (Duke) Bischoff, Carol Montgomery (Tom Gettys), Peggy Weidner (Mike Bahnsen) Julia (Ricky) Webb, Laura Olmeda, and John Weidner.
