In Memoriam
“Scooter” John Carl Weir, 73
November 14, 1948 - November 27, 2021

Father, friend, and handyman Scooter’s life came to an end on November 27, 2021 after a short illness with his family by his side. He was born November 14, 1948 in Cooperstown, NY to Ann (Kallan) Weir and Carl Weir. He was well known to most for his cheerful laugh, helping hand, and bartending skills. The thing he loved the most was being around friends and family.
For 20 years he worked as a caretaker for Steve and MJ Harris in Hartwick. Many times, you could see him riding around on that John Deere tractor mowing lawn or plowing snow. You might also see him sitting in his truck reading the newspaper or looking over his to do list wondering which task he would do first or thinking to himself what are they thinking with this list. While not a decorator by trade he always had a way of making the holidays brighter and beautiful around the house.
