In Loving Memory of a Dear Son, Brother and Boyfriend
Artie Weitzel, Jr.
1/1/1960 - 12/18/2005
Happy Birthday
Happy New Year
The bitter grief that
first we felt
When God called
you away,
Has been sweetened
by anticipation
Of joining you that
Promised Day.
We Love You,
We Miss You
TURN THE PAGE,
Love, Goodnight and God Bless You
Your Loving Family

My husband Pete and I only knew Artie for a short time but could tell he was a very special person. He had the amazing ability to make you feel at ease and laugh and be yourself. He was a good man, gracious and giving. I know he and
Lori had a very deep and special love that will last forever. Thank you Artie for loving our friend Lori and making a difference in the many
lives you touched along the way.

After 12 years of talking almost everyday I didn't know how it would be. We'll it sucks. Artie was a great freind but most of all a great son, brother, father,and boyfreind.Artie was the happiest he's been in a very long time and Lori he had you to thank for that.The people that read this and can't understand normal thinking you never got it and never will. That's for you my freind. TURN THE PAGE.

On a long and lonesome highway
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine
moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman
or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
you just wish the trip was through

Well you walk into a restaurant,
strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk,
other times you can
All the same old cliches,
"Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered,
you don't dare make a stand

Out there in the spotlight
you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body
like the music that you play
Later in the evening
as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
rememberin' what she said

Mice/rats.. same thing, fits well..To all parties involved who are trying to sue for personal monetary gain..I'm not trying to turn this memorial into something negative. That is furthest from my mind.
Someone who loved Artie, 23 March 2006
This is a beautiful place for Artie and the people who loved him, but I just need to say this: I'm really hoping you ugly vultures won't even come on this website, but if you do.. I have a few words for you.... You can't take from Artie anymore. He's gone... you can trying sueing for whatever you like, you will never be happy people ever. You are only out for yourselves. But guess what, he's in peace now... away from you!

"Life is brief and very fragile, do that which makes you happy. Into each heart is born a spirit filled with wonder..."
Artie, your spirit shines brightly among the stars in heaven. We will never forget you with your friendly smile and warm personality making us feel like old friends, even though we were only given the chance to know one another for a very short time. God bless your family and loved ones, and always know that you'll be dearly missed by Lori and her sister's family.
