I send my condolences to you and your family. May the Lord bless you and your family with an abundance of peace at this time! A big hug from us to you all!
Weldon was a true soldier of the cross, a man of vision, courage and passion for sharing the Christian message. His ministry touched the lives of many especially youth and children with his friend, Happy Harry. May the Lord comfort Marie and family. We celebrate his life lived to the full for the Lord. - Keith and Gael Lohnes
Weldon was a wonderful Servant to his Savior. I think of that song, "Thank You for Giving to the Lord " I remember many times Weldon and Marie being at churches my Dad ministered (Rev. Reynolds James) also at Camp's through out the years. I was blessed as a child from his Ministry. My condolences to the whole family. I know my Dad will be welcoming him in Heaven with a big smile ! And he will hear from his Savior " Well Done though good and Faithful Servant." May you all feel God's presence during this difficult time of Loss. Hugs to you Marie and the Family.

Weldon was a special gift to family and friends as well as being a mentor to young potential ministers. Donna and I thank God for him and his life. He gave me my first opportunity to teach a bible series within a church. That one opportunity extended over a lifetime of service for the Kingdom. Special prayers over you, Marie and all family members. "When we all get to Heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be. When we all see Jesus, we'll sing and shout the victory"!
We are so thankful for Weldon's life and legacy and our prayers are with his entire family. May God hold you close and give you His peace.
Dear Marie and family, Bless you for your faithful, loving care through this extended period of time. May His sweet, wonderful peace sweep over your spirits as you allow yourselves to experience rest and rejuvenation. It is pleasant to think of Weldon and Norma Jean enjoying once again the full volume and precision of their youthful singing voices! Agape.
We did not know the family that well but knew Tammy. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you, Tammy, and the whole family at this sad time.
Dear Family, I am so sorry about the passing of your dear loved one. Losing someone close to us is one of the most difficult times in our life. The God of all Comfort knows how much pain this causes us. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4. May your fond memories erase the painful ones.
My heart and prayers are with you and your family Marie. Feeling blessed that I knew Weldon the short time that I did and appreciate the wonderful man that he was.
Over the many years, beginning at CUE in 1973 our relationship grew. The kids program in Buffalo changed many lives. Thanks for your faithfulness to God. Well done Weldon see you at the masters throne.
God Bless you Marie and your family at this season of your life. We all will face separation from our loved ones, but knowing that we will see them in Heaven gives us such great peace at this time of sorrow.
We will especially be thankful for Weldon's keen sense of humour and wit. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless.
Our sincere sympathies to Marie, and the family and friends of Weldon - as we celebrate with you his Home-going, and a life well lived! - "Well Done Good And Faithful Servant - Enter Into The Joy Of The Lord"!
Weldon was a godly man who lived his faith, in and out of the pulpit and every ministry opportunity God gave him. Weldon was there praying by my side when I first felt the call to go into ministry. Thank you Weldon! Thank you Marie!
We send our love, sympathy and prayers. God bless you Marie and family.
Marie Please be assured of my deepest condolences and prayers on Weldon's passing. Rest assured that he is now in a far better place. I always remember his great kindnesses to mother and I when you were Mother's Red Cross caregiver here in Kingston, and the number of times he would come to the house , on your summons, too help you get mother back on her feet when she had fallen. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and the family on Wednesday. Arthur
I pray for God to be your strength during this time. I have so many fond memories of you both through the years. Weldon is at rest & I know God has you Marie wrapped in his arms. Much love, Denise
Heaven has another great singer for the choir and he will certainly fit right in with all the gospel quartets praising our Saviour. All his pain is gone and may all those he has prayed for over the years find their home in heaven and be gems in his crown .OUR CONDOLENCES MARIE AND FAMILY AND PRAISE FOR A LIFE WELL LIVED. MARGARET AND FAMILY
Sincere sympathy to Marie and the family. Lots of happy memories.
