2021-04-12T15:02:58-04:00Passing of Nick LawrenceRE: Passing of Laura Weathers<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size:24px;">Obituary </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">Laura Rowe Weathers was born on April 27, 1945, in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. In 1965, she and Benjamin Ashley Weathers III were married and from that union, she found her great joy: two children and three grandchildren. Their home became the grandchildren’s haven with GI Joe and Star Wars toys under the baby grand piano and an electric train under the table where they would sit and play. Many times Laura was tirelessly working on materials to instruct the children through their journey in Bible Study Fellowship, a Christian fellowship, in which she served for many years. Laura worked beside her husband for 18 years at Veterinary Medical Supply as head of HR. She could get the job done! She and Benny traveled extensively to every continent. Many of their travels included traveling with past Cadets and wives from Carolina Military Academy from which Benny graduated. Always civic-minded, Laura was past President of the Hoe ’n Hope Garden Club, Secretary of the Wendell Historical Society, Board of Visitors at Southeastern Baptist Seminary, First Vice Regent/Secretary/Registrant of the Caswell-Nash Chapter of the DAR, member of the Woman’s Club of Raleigh serving on the Auctions and Fashion Show chairman. She was a Docent at the Executive Mansion in Raleigh. Laura was devoted to missions and traveled to Africa, Cambodia, Thailand, South America, and the Philippines. She supported an Agape Village in Africa, African Mercy Ship, Hope Reins in Raleigh (and many others) when travel was not possible. Her love of the Lord was evident in every aspect of her life. She enjoyed a good “spiritual debate.” Laura also enjoyed their home at Topsail Beach which her father built and especially enjoyed attending the Emma Anderson Memorial Chapel and the friendships they developed there. </p>
<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">As a born and bred Southerner, she loved Southern traditions. She named her children—Audrey Nell Weathers and Benjamin Ashley Weather IV—after the grandfathers. Also the grandchildren enjoyed the “family name” tradition: Granddaughter, LauraAshley Crawford, daughter of Audrey Weathers Crawford; Grandsons, children of Benjamin and Marty Woodlief Weathers, Benjamin Ashley Weathers V (Finn), Owen Woodlief Weathers (Wood). They all called her MyLaura. </p>
<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">Laura was spiritually ready to abide with her Lord and Savior and son Benjamin who predeceased her. She will be missed. </p>
<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">Surviving: husband, Benjamin Ashley Weathers, III; daughter, Audrey Weathers Crawford; daughter-in-law, Marty Woodlief Weathers; grandchildren: Laura-Ashley Crawford, Benjamin Ashley Weathers, V “Finn”, Owen Woodlief Weathers “Wood”; brother, Clyde Douglas Rowe, Jr.; sisters: Deborah Rowe Kunselman, Frankie Rowe Drum, Kimberleah Rowe Sutton. </p>

<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">The family will receive friends and family at Weathering Oaks Farm, 1625 Davistown Road, Wendell, NC 27591 from 4:00 to 6:00 pm, on Thursday, July 16, 2020. </p>
<p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-size: 16px !important;">Laura requested that flowers be omitted and memorial contributions may be made to Laura Weathers Grandchildren’s Education Fund at First Citizens Bank, P.O. Box 549, Knightdale, NC 27545.</p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-size:20px;">“After the great job that Scott Blankinship did outlining the CMA History located on our home page. We thought we would ask all cadets and faculty to tell us their favorite memories. These can be titled “My Favorite CMA Memory”, “Bragging Rights”, “What I Hated Most”, or any other Memory you would like to share about your time at CMA, A reunion you attended, or a story you previously posted on your cadet profile or anything you would like to post.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:20px;">Worthy post will be moved to the appropriate location on the CMA History page. Be careful you never know who will be listening. If you are not comfortable with the forum format, send me an email and I will post it on the forum. </span></p>

<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Benjamin Ashley Weathers, IV, of Rolesville entered heaven Tuesday evening, June 8, 2015 surrounded by his loving family. He leaves behind his devoted wife Marty Woodlief Weathers, and two precious sons; Benjamin Ashley Weathers, V (Finn), age seven and Owen Woodlief Weathers (Wood), age four.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Benjamin, 42 years old, was the son of Laura and Ben Weathers, brother of Audrey Weathers Crawford and uncle to Laura Ashley Crawford, all of Wendell. He loved his in-laws, Patsy and Donnie Woodlief and brother-in-law, Keith of Rolesville.</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Benjamin, aka, Ben, Benji loved and lived life to the fullest. He was an avid hunter and fisherman, a longtime member of Ducks Unlimited, The Wolfpack Club and the National Rifle Association. At nine years old he killed his first black bear with one shot in the Canadian Wilderness, making him the poster boy, with a video for the year.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">Benjamin was a member of Faith Baptist Church in Knightdale. His life verse is found in 2 Timothy 4:7- I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the Crown of Righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day (June 8th).</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);">He leaves behind many faithful intercessors, family, friends, business associates that have genuinely been touched by his love, his strength, his kind and courageous spirit. These are the people who will forever remember him as "The Warrior".</span></span></span></p>
