Obituary: William Weeks
William R. Weeks, at 82
William R. “Bill” Weeks, 82, a longtime resident of Hull, passed away suddenly on January 17, 2024 at his new home in Marshfield. The love of his life, his wife Sandy, was by his side.
Mr. Weeks was born in 1941 and raised in Quincy. After high school, he served in the Navy on sub rescue ship. He started his professional career as a truck driver, and then under the tutelage of a close family friend, he became a structural draftsman for several large Boston-based engineering firms. He returned to his love of driving, securing a CDL school bus license and driving students to school, track meets, and sporting events all over southeastern Massachusetts. The students were special to him, and the cards he received from them were a source of pride and honor.
He loved sailing his boat through the Boston Harbor islands. All vacations were spent skiing in Colorado and Utah. Only until recently did he turn to warm weather, vacationing with his wife, daughter, and her husband. For the past 17 years, he and his wife loved riding their Harley Davidson throughout southern New Hampshire and along all the back roads of the South Shore. He took meticulous care of his bike and was proud that it looked like the day he bought it. His other passions included golf, board games, and playing pool with his friends.
Mr. Weeks was truly loved by his wife, Sandra Weeks, for their 48 years together, and by his loving daughter, Cheryl Weeks, and her husband, Terry Fogg of Rindge, N.H.
A celebration of life will held in the spring with longtime friends.
