A celebration of her life was held Thursday at Zion Lutheran Church in La Grande. Loveland Funeral Chapel was in charge of arrangements.

Mrs. Weise was born Aug. 17, 1924, at Baker City to Otto and Velma Lammert. She attended St. Elizabeth School for nursing, and graduated as a registered nurse in 1944. She worked at the hospital until she married Willard Weise in 1948. They were married in Boise, where he worked.

She belonged to the Union Business Women organization for 20 years and Caring Helpers for 13 years, both of Union. She also volunteered for several other organizations.

Mrs. Weise belonged to the Zion Lutheran Church since she moved to Union, and she was very active in the church.
