Walter Shannon Weaver
Walter Shannon “Flash” Weaver died March 15, 2010, at his home in Spokane.
He was born to Walter McDonald Weaver and Josephine (Ferguson) Weaver in Bellevue in 1959. He attended elementary school in Warden and high school in Lind. He graduated from Spokane Falls Community College with an AA degree and later attended Eastern Washington University where he studied environmental sciences.
He worked for Franz Farms Ltd. in Lind for a short time before taking a position at Hanford monitoring weather stations. He also worked for a nursery near Moses Lake and drove truck for Swift for a number of years.
It has been said no matter how busy he was, he always had time to look after his father in his later years. His love of the outdoors, especially waterfowl hunting, kept him busy through the years. He raised many chocolate labs that served him as hunting partners.
In 2009, he married the love of his life, Tina, and they were just beginning their new lives together.
On Saturday, April 10, at 11 a.m., an informal gathering of family and friends is planned at 805 Edgewater in Moses Lake. For details, call his brother Reid at 425-308-2681.
