"Sam" Sandra Weir (Stutz)
I graduated from Ball State University. I left for Anchorage Alaska on a whim in June of 1980. I played in a racketball tournament and won my division, met several people, and had a job, a boyfriend, and a place to stay within 3 weeks. That August I did a TV commercial and video for Steve Mahays Riverboat Fishing. I caught a 40 lb King Salmon on that trip! Two weeks later I went white water rafting and camping with 2 other couples for 3 days, that was wild! I ended up deciding to live in Alaska. I met Wes on a racketball court in 1981 and we got married in June of 1983. We just had our 26th anniversary. I worked in outside sales and taught aerobics. Channel 2 called and put my 6:00 am aerobics class on the news. October of 1989 we had a beautiful daughter, Morgan Weir. I was actually 5 1/2 months pregnant at the 20 year class reunion. She just finished her first year at University of Idaho, school of our famous Governor Palin. Winters felt longer and longer, so Wes and I moved to Fortuna, California May of 2008, right after Morgan graduated from high school. Our new adventure is amazing. I retired and I am an Ambassador for the Chamber of Commerce and I belong to the Humboldt Sponsors Association which does fundraisers for scholarships for our youth. We have many friends, and are very much enjoying our new adventure. My interests are scrapbooking my photos, traveling, and being with friends and family. My husband Wes is a 5 time Ironman finisher.
