With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Douglas B. Weaver of Monroe, MI.
Behind every name is a life, and behind every life are the people who loved it.
Douglas spent his working life as ['Ford Motor Company in Monroe'] — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew him best.
Grief is love with nowhere left to go.
Douglas B. Weaver
