Remembering Beatrice Weaver

Beatrice Anne Weaver, age 99, went to be with her Lord early morning Tuesday, July 14, 2026. Bea was a charter member of  Plymouth Heights Christian Reformed Church. She loved her church community dearly. She was a big fan of the Detroit Tigers and enjoyed watching games with family and friends. Bea, even at 99 years when asked about what was important to her, she replied, “living life with a purpose”. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of sixty years, Marvin Weaver; son-in-law, Irvin Timm; and great-grandson, Rafe Knoper. Beatrice was the last remaining sibling in the Visser and Weaver families. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandma, great-grandma, and great-great-grandma and will be lovingly remembered by her children, Harold and Joyce Weaver, Bill and Carole Weaver, Chuck and Joyce Weaver, JoAnne Timm; her grandchildren, David and Marci Weaver, Laura Weaver, Alisha and Gregg Mulder, Nate and Elissa Weaver, Adam Weaver, Jordan and Natalie Weaver, Charlie Weaver, Ben and Mallory Weaver, Melissa and Travis Knoper, Seth and Morgan Weaver, and Ashley and Dan Stoepker; 33 great-grandchildren; 1 great-great-grandchild; and numerous nieces and nephews. A graveside  service will be held at 10:30 am on Thursday, July 16 at Woodlawn Cemetery, 2530 Kalamazoo Ave SE, Grand Rapids with her grandson, Chaplain Lt. David Weaver officiating.

Although, I will be unable to attend the graveside service, my heart, my thoughts, and my prayers will be there with you. Aunt Bea , what a joy you brought to life!… I remember well the years of Friday afternoons styling your hair. And the laughs we used to have together. I was so blessed to have that time with her. And who could forget her famous fudge! Every time we had a family get together at the cottage we all looked forward to aunt B’s fudge.… No matter what their age, losing our mom leaves a hole in our heart that only God can fill. I pray that you will feel him holding you close to his heart today and in the days to come….close 91But we can rejoice at the reunion going on in heaven! Hallelujah!! What a Savior!

Seeing her picture touches my heart deeply. Such a very special aunt with a smile that brought light to all. And she reminds me of my Mom, they looked alike in their older years. Dear cousins, you are in my prayers. God has given you much time with Mom but never enough. So very sorry for your loss. So very thankful for the promise of Heaven! "What a day that will be when my Jesus I will see, when He takes me by the hand and leads me to the promise land" .....she experienced it!! And so will we who believe in Jesus! She had a whole family welcoming her, and since a day is like a thousand years in Heaven, "tomorrow" she will see the rest of us! May you feel your Savior's arms around you holding you up.

A life well lived to the end, Aunt Bea. You definitely had a purpose and a place in our hearts. Your kids will miss the Sunday afternoon family time with you. Heaven has gained another grateful and gracious servant of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Sending hugs of comfort to our cousins. Jim and Laurel DeGraaf
