Weaver, Annabell (Harger)

Annabell met Neale Weaver after he returned from Europe following the end of World War II. They married Feb. 9, 1946, and they were happily married for 67 years. Annabell retired from the workforce in 1986 from RFK Transportation. She was a lifelong member of Cedar Christian Church.

Her family was her life. Annabell followed two guiding philosophies through her life: spiritually she received great comfort knowing that Christ is her Savior; and socially - she believed that if you were always kind to the people you meet in your life they would in turn be kind to you.

Annabell did many unique and interesting things during her life. One of the most unique projects she undertook was to write a book telling the story of her early life as a child growing up on a farm during the Great Depression. She tells about walking a mile on clay-surfaced roads to get to a one room school house. She describes how her family grew and raised their food from the land they lived on. Annabell spent several years researching dates, collecting photos and writing script to complete the telling of her early life story. She completed the book in the fall of 2012 and presented the bound final work to her family at Christmas.

The family wishes to express their deep appreciation to Joann Bender for helping her aunt through this difficult period.

A memorial fund has been established in Annabell's memory.
