Weber, Alfred Henry Weber
Monroe County Beacon, Woodsfield, Ohio, dated, July 21, 1955
LKP#5
Alfred Henry Weber, son of Wm. J. and Gertrude Claus Weber, was born in Malaga Township, Monroe County, Ohio, on October 21, 1904. He departed this life suddenly on the evening of May 18, 1955, at the age of 50 years, six months and 27 days of age.
He was the eldest of a family of seven children and was baptized in the Evangelical and Reformed faith when an infant. At the early age of thirteen, he was confirmed in St. John?s church near Lewisville where he remained a faithful member.
On December 5, 1928, he was married to Laura Ethel Hoff, who with their two sons, Lyle, of Quaker City, and Leslie, of Columbus, survive.
He is also survived by two daughters-in-law and the following brothers and sisters: Wesley Weber, of Lewisville; Wm. J. Weber, of Mansfield, Ohio; Mrs. Ernest Hoff and Mrs. Willard Weber, of Lewisville. and Mrs. Clinton Lent, of Quaker City, Ohio.
He was preceded in death by his parents and one brother, George, of Barnesville, Ohio.
Mr. Weber resided in Monroe County until 1941 when he, with his family, moved to Quaker City where they have since made their home. He was employed by the Ohio Fuel Gas Co., and in 1953 was presented a thirty-year badge of honor, making a total of thirty-two years of faithful service with that company.
Along with this employment he became a skilled plumber. Although his earthy life was short, it was one of fullest service to his fellowman.
He gave unsparingly of his time, talent, and possessions for those in need. No call within his knowledge went unheeded.
Mr. Weber was a member of the Men?s Brotherhood of his church and also of the Odd Fellows Lodge at Quaker City. He was a good husband and father, and a citizen who will be greatly missed. Though the shock is hard to bear we have this consolation: With his earthly journey over may the Master say: ?Well done thou good and faithful servant.?
Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at two o?clock at St. John?s Evangelical and Reformed Church at Middle Church, with Rev. George Varns, of Lewisville, and Rev. Robert Zinsmeister, of Quaker City, officiating. Burial was made in the church cemetery.
