During his tenure there, he rose from factory worker to plant manager.

Bill married Carol Mae Murray in Spokane and they raised five children together and had many wonderful experiences of cross-country vacations, camping, and Myrtle Beach trips. Bill was an avid gardener and golfer and a published poet. He also loved playing the harmonica for family and friends and telling many wonderful stories throughout his life.

Carol Mae Weyer, age 86, passed into her new world with Jesus Christ on January 25th, 2011.

She was born in Spokane, WA on December 26th, 1924 and lived in Spokane throughout her childhood, graduating from Lewis and Clark High School. On May 14th, 1948, she married William C. Weyer and began a life dedicated to raising a family. In 1958 with five children, they moved to Ravenswood, WV and there established themselves and remained until all of their children had completed their education. There were many wonderful experiences of cross-country vacations, camping, trips to Myrtle Beach and many other family centered experiences. Carol was a volunteer for Jackson General Hospital and she served as President of the Rosary Altar Society and Church Secretary at Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in Ravenswood. She was an avid golfer, winning the local Women's Nine Hole Championship twice, and she loved sewing, painting, quilting, craft-making and bird watching. She traveled to many places including Europe and Australia and in her and her husband's retirement years they moved to Spokane and Camano Island, Washington, back to West Virginia and finally to Richmond, TX. These moves enabled them to live near each of their children and grandchildren.
