Weldon (otherwise known as Papa) was a selfless, loving, kind, gentle and giving soul. He loved to fish; fishing is what he would choose to do in any pass time; and one of the many things he taught his children and grandchildren. Papa loved to tell stories about his kids, sometimes you would hear them more than once; but that was Papa. He loved to make people laugh; he always had something obscure to say, if he made you smile then he was happy. He loved to be in the company of his family, there wasn't a day that went by that he didn't wish we were all together. He was a hands on man, he taught all five of his children the life skills they needed to be successful. Time with his grandchildren meant the world to him; he would drop whatever he was doing to provide his attention. He was Honorable, Compassionate, Empathetic, had Integrity and an Abundance of Love. He was nothing short of being the most amazing Husband, Father and Grandfather to all us. We miss you so much!
Weldon is survived by his loving wife of 51 years: Patricia Lee McClelland; Children: Terry (Mimi) McClelland, Mac (Jennifer) McClelland, Kevin McClelland, Laura McClelland, Patty McClelland and Tina Jones. Grandchildren: Jonathan, Maxi, RJ, Zoe, Roy, Aaron, Justin, Jeremiah, Mallory, and Tate; and three great grandchildren. Siblings: Linda, Joe, Billy & Niomi.
