Don was born in Eastman, Georgia to the late Jim Mathew Weeks and Marie Lee Weeks and is now reunited with the love of his life, his wife, Shirley Smith Weeks. He loved more than anything to spend time with his three girls. Don was a retired Macon-Bibb County Fireman and served his country in the Air National Guard. He was also a member of Friendship Baptist Church. Don was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. His family was his most prized possession and he will be deeply missed.
Don will be lovingly remembered by his children, Vicki Reid, Donna (Alton) Busbee of Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Lori (Ricky) Jones; grandchildren, Bud (Lira), Britney (Jamie), Chloe, Don and Faith; and four great granddaughters, to carry on his legacy.
He always told his grandchildren, “Watch out for low flying airplanes.”
