Obituary

On January 28, 1965, a baby boy, Micheal Ray Weaver, was born to Christine Weaver-Harris and Hugh Reed in Seattle, Washington. Micheal attended school in Seattle, Washington until his family moved to Oklahoma, where he attended and graduated from Meeker High School in 1984. Sports have always played an essential role in Micheal's life. From an early age and in school, he played baseball, basketball, and football and attended every major league sports game he could from the time he was a young boy. Football would become the sport of his passion. After graduation, Micheal moved back to Seattle, attending Seattle Opportunity Institute of Technology, earning a certificate in welding.

He joined the Church of the Living God at an early age, where his grandmother, Bishop O.M. Curry, was the pastor. While in Okmulgee, he attended United Methodist Church under Pastor J. Kotey. Several years ago, Micheal joined Jubilee Christian Center, where he remained until his heavenly descent. Micheal enjoyed helping in the church wherever he could, and of course he enjoyed attending the monthly men's breakfast meetings. Micheal had a humble spirit always, never boasting of himself, and always giving to others. He would give you the clothes off his back and wanted to see others happy.

Micheal's love for food brought him to work in the food industry as a prep cook in large restaurants in Seattle. He was a machinist for many years in Tulsa and Houston. Micheal began working for J.B. Scaffolding, traveling to various states. For three years, the company transferred him to St. Croix, Virgin Islands, where he enjoyed living on the islands.

Okmulgee Public School became Micheal's most rewarding position. The position allowed him to care for others and to mentor children of all ages. He took pride in whatever he did, ensuring classrooms were ready for the staff and students. He volunteered on field trips and would do whatever was necessary without being asked. The highlight of his day was the kids. You could see the smile on his face as he walked through the classrooms, lunchrooms, Walmart, or anywhere in the community, and the children, younger and older, would call out, "Hi, uncle Mike (or Coach Weaver)!" Micheal was a Bulldog through and through.

Coaching for Okmulgee Junior Football Association (OJFA) rekindled his passion for sports. He faithfully dedicated his time and efforts to coaching the kids for over ten years. The Jones family (OJFA owners) was Micheal's second family. Micheal was an assistant coach and filmed the track team, girls basketball, and football teams for the high school. He was the ten-and-under baseball coach for Green County for four years and worked with the Special Olympics and Muscogee Creek Nation summer teams.

Micheal loved providing opportunities for children to grow and succeed in their endeavors. He understood the challenges many kids faced and communicated well with them. Micheal mentored many kids. If a kid wanted to play sports and did not have equipment or transportation, Micheal would go out of his way to meet the kids needs, asking nothing in return. He did the same with his family. As one of the oldest cousins (60+), Micheal mentored his nephews, nieces, and cousins, providing advice in physical training, coaching, and life lessons.

On August 31, 1992, Micheal and Alicia Jones had a son, Treyson Antonio Weaver. Having a son was life-rewarding for Micheal. He would spend the rest of his life caring for and raising his son, Treyson. Micheal concentrated all his efforts on Treyson's happiness and well-being. They traveled and spent much of their time together. They spent much of their time working on special automotive projects, a passion of theirs. Besides the striking resemblance and demeanor, the bond between Micheal and Treyson was inseparable. When Micheal became ill, Treyson spent his life caring for his dad's well-being and happiness until Micheal's peaceful departure from this earth.

On Sunday, January 9, 2022, peacefully in his sleep, the Lord called Micheal home to rest; job well done.

Micheal was preceded in death by his father, Hugh T. Reed, and stepfather, Vernon Weaver, Jr.

He leaves to cherish his memories: one son, Treyson A. Weaver; stepdaughter, Tiannah Nicholson; his mother, Christine Weaver- Harris of Okmulgee, Oklahoma; three sisters, Juanita (Lorenzo) Morgan, Daria Weaver of Okmulgee, Oklahoma, and Taria (Bryant)  Demery of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; five nephews, Bryant Demery, Dominique Morgan, Caryl Weaver, Christopher Morgan, and Aaron Morgan, all of Okmulgee, Oklahoma; three nieces, Brittany Demery, Quira Demery, and Ausha Demery of Florida; three living aunts, Julia Thompson, Janet (Ronald) Jackson, and Marilyn (Virgil) Franklin; living uncles, Jerome (Mary) Curry of Okmulgee, Oklahoma,Tyrome (Michele) Curry and Marlon Curry of Seattle, Washington; goddaughters, Kimiko Brown and Amber Brown; a host of loving great-nieces, great-nephews, and cousins; longtime friends, Alicia Jones and Kim Brown; special friends, (big sister) Rochelle Pearson and Kevin Rucker, whom he called his brother.
