Corinne was born January 18, 1920 in Earlville to Wade and Daisy (Baird) Holliday. She married Clement (Clem) Weber on April 27th, 1943. She lived a full life as a wife and mother in the rural Triumph and Earlville area until moving to Florida in 1984.

She also enjoyed a monthly card club with close friends for over 40 years while in Earlville. She loved cooking, sewing, embroidery projects and numerous other crafts as well as her daily crossword puzzle. She was an avid Chicago Cubs fan; but out of all the things she loved the most, her children and grandchildren were always the pride and joy of her life. She was a proud face in the crowd at every school event and the graduation of every grandchild. She will be greatly missed by her family.
