The family of Carl Weber, 88,  has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to attend his memorial and honor him, we are honored to do so.
 
Carl Weber enlisted in the USMC in 1943 during WWII and was honorably discharged in 1946.  In WWII in the Pacific he was shot by a sniper and was awarded the Purple Heart.  He was a great patriot and a member of the VFW for many years.
 
Carl was preceded in death by his loving wife Fran who passed in 2010, he is survived by 2 sons, John and Larry, and 2 daughters, Teri and Rosemary, 7 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.
 
Carl's friends and family are getting together for a Memorial to honor him and celebrate his life.  This will take place in Atascadero at the Veterans Memorial then move to the VFW for lunch and an exchange of memories about this Hero.
