Larry Weber passed away peacefully on Sunday, October 23rd, 2011, in his home with family by his side at the age of 67.  Predeceased by his father William and sister Florence; survived by his mother Phyllis and siblings Robert, Jim (Shirley), Fred (Lorie), Dot (Dave) Ansell, Yogi (Stacey), Tim (Judi) and Mary (Gord) Poole.  Larry leaves his loving wife of 45 years, Joyce, to cherish his memory, along with his children Sharon (Michael) Dombowsky, Brenda (Dwight) Watson, and Brent; grandchildren Alex (Kahla), Brittaney (Dylan) Kobsar, Trina, Tianna, Jennifer, Melissa (Quinton) and great-grandchildren Ethan, Angelina and Aston.  Larry was born on June 24th, 1944 in Melville, Saskatchewan.  He attended Hilltop School near Yorkton until 1953 when he moved to Moose Jaw.  He attended Coburg School southwest of Moose Jaw, before attending William Grayson where he graduated grade 8.  Working hard was always important to Larry, leading him to find his first job at McCargars Feed Lot at a very young age.  He then moved on to Royal Mail where he delivered mail to southern Saskatchewan residents.  When Larry was 23, he chose his career as a truck driver and was hired by Willms Transport (now Westcan).  He was a highly respected and devoted employee, and as such was consistently named “Driver of the Year”, until he retired from Westcan at the age of 65.  Larry always loved being outdoors.  Fishing, camping, gardening and working on vehicles were just some of the many activities he enjoyed.  He will be greatly missed by his three dogs, especially “Dude”.  Larry was a kind hearted man and always willing to go that extra mile for anyone.  He will be missed by each and every person that had the pleasure of knowing him.  A Memorial Service will be celebrated on Monday, October 31st, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. in Moose Jaw Funeral Home with Pastor Bill Thomson of Trinity United Church officiating.  In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Allan Blair Cancer Centre, 4101 Dewdney Avenue, Regina, SK S4T 7T1.
