Steven Weaver

Steven Keith Weaver passed away Sunday 4th, 2025, at the age of 62. Steve was born December 2, 1962, at Williams Air Force Base in Chandler, Arizona, to Keith and Dorothy May Cofield Weaver. The family later moved back to Mildred, Texas where Steve attended school. He was an overachiever at Mildred High School: All District Defensive Tackle and Defensive Player of the Year in football, District Best Actor and All-Star Cast in One Act Plays, and active in FFA, basketball, and Track & Field. The teachers loved him. He was eager to learn, especially history. He graduated with honors in 1981, as the Salutatorian Steve attended the University of Texas at Arlington on a football scholarship, playing for two years. He cherished the annual reunions with his former football teammates. In 1987, Steve met Claudia Ann Curtis in Fort Worth. Their love grew, and they married in 1991. Together, they had three sons who were the greatest source of pride in his life Steve worked at Sun & Ski Sports in Arlington, North Texas Warehouse Services across the country, and K-Mart warehouse in Corsicana. His last employment was at Pactiv Evergreen in Corsicana, starting in 2013. His co-workers affectionately nicknamed him "Papa Thug." He was meticulous and professional and always looked after his team. Throughout his career, he made many lifelong friends. Steve loved music, especially rock and was the go-to person for identifying songs, bands, albums, and details about historic music events. Before Google, he was that guy you called when you had a music question. He attended concerts by his favorite bands and was a member of the Foundation Room at the House of Blues in Dallas. He also served as an administrator for the Facebook page Rock & Roll Music 2.0, where he spent hours researching and sharing posts celebrating musicians’ birthdays and historic music events. His presence on that page will be dearly missed. Steve was immensely proud of his three sons. He adored Morgan’s academic achievements and his enlistment in the National Guard, Payton’s intelligence and athletic accomplishments and his enlistment in the Marines, and Quintin’s prodigious musical talent. Each of his boys reflected a part of him, and he loved bragging about each of their successes. He is preceded in death by his father, Keith Weaver. He is survived by his mother Dorothy; his brother Mike and his wife Charlotte; his sons Morgan Curtis, Payton Lee, and Quintin Keith, and their mother, Claudia Ann Curtis. He also leaves behind a large extended family and just as many friends he cared for as family. Visitation Friday evening from 6-8pm at Griffin - Roughton Funeral Home.
