Jeff Weaver

Jeffrey Lynn Weaver was born Oct. 21, 1946. He died and left this life to be with his Lord and Savior on Sept. 13, 2021, in Summerville, South Carolina, at the age of 74.

Jeff graduated from high school in Burlington and earned a B.S. degree in agricultural economics from Oklahoma State University.

His career in the agricultural finance and banking world spanned over three decades, making a beneficial impression on numerous financial institutions and clients around the country. His good nature and natural ability to make connections, coupled with his strong bond with dedicated stewards of land and livestock, often turned clients into personal friends.

Jeff had a genuine heart, never met a stranger and was adored by all who had the pleasure of meeting him. He seemed to always run into someone he knew, no matter where he traveled. He had a unique sparkle in his eye that was unforgettable. He was a clever and crafty storyteller that left his listeners hanging on every word.

Jeff had a keen love and appreciation for a good horse, a great game of golf, a relaxing (yet successful) fishing trip, and a quality cigar in the evening now and then. Jeff was also a dedicated scholar of the Holy Bible and was a faithful servant to our Lord and Savior.

He is survived by his loving wife of 33 years, Karen; daughters, Shanna Wandmacher and husband Mark and Shanelle Wagner and husband Kevin; stepsons, Jeff Dykstra and wife Holly and Marc Dykstra and wife Chas; stepdaughter, Denise Dyk­stra; siblings, Dennis Weaver and wife Joyce, Glenda Rice, and Sharon Gartrell and husband Mike; 11 grandchildren; and numerous cousins, nieces, nephews and special friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Sylvia and Glen Weaver.

Jeff was loved and thought of very fondly throughout his life and will be truly missed.

A celebration of life will be held Saturday, Oct. 9, at 2 p.m. at Old Town Museum, East End, 420 S. 14th St., Burlington, CO 80807 (use entrance on east side of building, opposite main entrance).
