The Reverend Dr. Don Weaver to Deliver Prophetic Message: Vision for SLI Future
Tomorrow, Aug. 27, 10:30 am at Epworth
Don Weaver and his wife, Barbara, are no strangers to the SLI community. They have lived on Harris Ave. for many years. Just recently, Barb and Don sent this News.Blog a Thank You to be published for all to see and appreciate:

To our dear Silver Lake Family

Mere words cannot express how much we have appreciated your many acts of kindness and love during these past weeks of our daughter Sue’s hospitalization and then her passing. She loved Silver Lake so much. As a youth, she was a camper at Asbury, then became the camp nurse and then, with her family became summer lake lovers here on Harris Avenue. We feel sad but also feel blest that we have had this time and this place to share our lives and our love with her and with all of you. Thank you so much for your cards, your visits, your phone calls, your notes…the list just goes on. 

We are blest to have you in our lives.

Loving Don and Barb Weaver\\
