Donald George Weaving passed away peacefully Sept. 24, 2013.

He is survived by his loving wife of 19 years, Florine Watson Weaving.

Shortly after his birth on Dec. 16, 1931 in Albany, Calif., his family relocated to his grandparent's ranch in Scotts Valley, outside of Lakeport, Calif. He attended school in Lakeport until his graduation in 1949.

From 1950 until 1954 he served in the U.S. Air Force as a crew chief on flights evacuating the wounded during the Korean War.

He then worked for the U.S. Postal Service in San Leandro until his retirement in 1987. While a letter carrier, he also established an income tax service with longtime friend and business partner, Linda Warren. This business still exists in the Bay Area and Lakeport.

Subsequent to leaving the Postal Service, he returned to his beloved Lake County, enjoying his retirement with bass fishing, relaxation, traveling, and attending the Lucerne Community Church.

Don is also survived by several children and stepchildren, Keith (Jessica) Weaving of Tracy, Calif, Donnie (Debra) Weaving of Reno, Nev., Bill Birdsell of Kanosh, UT, Bud Birdsell of Reno, Nev., Glenda Pimentel of Nice, Calif., Lonnie Watson of Vacaville, Calif., and Tommy (Maria) Watson of Clearlake, Calif. Also surviving him are many grandchildren and cousins.

A warm and loving man, he will be missed by all.

At 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 2, there will be a final prayer at Hartley Cemetery led by Pastor Chuck Rowen.
