Katherine "Kitty" Rose Weaver Obituary (1929

Katherine Rose Phenneger Weaver, 88 Katherine "Kitty" Rose Phenneger Weaver, 88, a resident of Linville, passed away on November 7, 2017. We say goodbye to Kitty, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Kitty was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania one of eight children to Hiram and Esther Rohrer Phenneger. Kitty loved family, music, sunshine, warm air and gardening. All who met Kitty were blessed to be truly seen - no one more than a child in her presence. Kitty graciously understood the heart in every child, and they recognized her connection to them. She demonstrated her gift through her time spent teaching and volunteering at Sunday school and daycare centers. She lived the quote by Lincoln... "Teach the children, so it will not be necessary to teach the adults." She met no strangers. Her smile and sparkling blue eyes lit up a room as she entered. Her sweet, sweet spirit is now with the Lord, and remains present with her husband, children, family and friends. She is survived by her husband of 68 years, Irvin D. Weaver and eight children: Susan L. Halterman, husband Bernie and daughter Kristin; D. Paul Weaver; Phyllis M. Thomas, husband Alfred and sons, Maxx and Alex; Dale Weaver and children, Ben, Katrina, and Leslie; Douglas P. Weaver, wife Sandra and sons, Joshua and Zachary; Marcia W. Jones and husband Kevin and children, Garyn and Hannah; Dean Mark Weaver, wife Andrea and children, Chloe, Sophia, Kate and Luke; Kay W. Lera and husband Robert. Kitty was preceded in death by two children, Judy and David Weaver, her parents, six sisters and one brother.
