Alma Jean Weaver

After a beautiful Spring day, with horses rolling in the green grass, birds coming to her feeders outside her window and her great grand baby, Alma Rose, playing at the foot of her bed, Alma Jean Weaver, 70, passed peacefully from this life into eternal rest with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on April 6, 2021.

Alma Jean Alvis Weaver was born to Hollis Alvis and Ruth Eliza on August 11, 1950 in Houston, Texas.  She was the youngest of four children, Dorothy Eugene Martin, Mary Jane Burnes Robinson and Thomas Burnes.

Alma enjoyed fishing and being near the water.  Her favorite color was blue.  She enjoyed going to the casinos with her husband Charles, sister Dorothy and daughter Clarissa.  She knew those machines and she always won. She loved watching the birds and her favorite bird was the cardinal, which came to visit her daily. She enjoyed her chickens, especially her roosters and would feed and watch them daily. She loved to hunt and could repair a car/truck engine as well as any man.  She was a hard worker and did whatever she needed to do to provide for her family.  She and her husband ran a wrecker service where she worked alongside of him.  Alma loved to camp at the Chicapen in Sargent, Texas.  She also loved to sing and dance and was often the life of the party. Her favorite song was “Hard Candy Christmas” by Dolly Parton.  She also loved to cook and would make enough for an army so that she could share.

When Alma was younger, she worked as a CNA, always taking care of those in need, as she could. Her favorite food was anything Mexican, and BBQ made by her son-in-law, Jose Moncivais.  Her favorite restaurant was Pappadeaux’s where she enjoyed coconut shrimp and a Category 5 Hurricane.  But, most of all, she loved her husband, Charles, of 47 years, her children, grand babies, great grand babies, as well as her nieces and nephews.

Alma is preceded in death by her parents, brother Thomas Burnes, sisters Mary Jane Burnes Robinson and husband George Robinson, Dorothy Eugene Martin and husband Charles Martin.  Also, her son-in-law, Jose Moncivais.
