WEILER, LENA Our loss is Heaven's gain! We lost our wonderful mother Lena Weiler, on September 11, 2014. She was born on November 3, 1922 and spent her youth in Tulsa, Oklahoma. While attending Oklahoma University, she met her future husband, Harold "Doc" Weiler, a Naval Pilot. After their marriage, they moved to Burlington, Wisconsin where they had seven children. As a young woman, she spent many summers attending camp in Carrizozo, New Mexico. When the family relocated to Albuquerque in 1960, she was able to realize her dream of returning to "The Land of Enchantment." She was passionate about her family, many friends, political debates, crossword puzzles and desserts of any kind! As people have often pointed out ----"She was a real Class Act!!"
