DANIEL B. WEBER.

This gentleman is another one of our successful farmers, but he is not by any means inclined to boast of that fact himself, he being of a modest, unassuming disposition, and a man who does not court newspaper notoriety. He was born about thirty-five years ago on the farm he now occupies, lot No. 32 and about one mile south of the village of Conestogo. The farm contains 209 acres and is a very choice body of land. His father, Elias Weber, came here about forty-eight years ago. The latter was born December 9, 1828, and on March 19, 1850, he was joined in marriage to Susanah, daughter of Jacob Bricker. She was born October 22, 1826. The union was blessed with three children. The mother died about a year ago, but the father is still hale and hearty and still lives a retired life at the old homestead, having given the farm over to his son, the subject of this sketch, several years ago. The latter was married to Mary Ann, daughter of Elias Martin, December 27, 1887. They have three children The junior Weber is at present one of the township school trustees, and he would undoubtedly be elected to a higher municipal position were he inclined to come out for election. He has been thoroughly successful as a farmer and annually produces large crops of hay and grain. During the past season he has turned out twenty- six head of very fine export cattle. The general outward appearance of this place indicates good taste and that it is conducted by experienced hands.

Notes:

WEBER, Emanuel Lloyd - We are very sad to announce the death of Emanuel Lloyd Weber, on Wednesday, May 9, 2007, at St. Mary's General Hospital, Kitchener. Survived by his sisters, Selina Brubacher, Lydia Freeman, Susanna (Leonard) Freeman, Martha (Mel) Eby and his twin brother, Amos Lorne (Grace); his brother-in-law, Henry (Marcella) Martin and many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by his parents, Amos and Lovina (Martin) Weber; his sister, Irene Martin, and brothers, Clayton and Ivan, and brother-in-law, Gordon Freeman. Lloyd touched everyone he met with warmth and limitless energy. He put his heart into everything he did, and welcomed and enjoyed every challenge he encountered. Lloyd was born in Waterloo County, May 30, 1933. After graduating from Western University in Economics in 1961, Lloyd went into the banking business and handled internal audits. The work was tending to become too routine after three years and, by chance he got to export farm equipment to the West Indies and Europe. Being born and raised on a farm, he was more attuned to this aspect of life than banking. In fact, he had such agricultural empathy that on a trip to Jamaica once, he went into the sugar cane fields and immediately saw some of the problems with equipment and came back to Canada to develop a new machine to speed up the cane harvest. The Jamaicans are still employing this technology, along with some of his innovative irrigation equipment. In 1966, Lloyd took a giant step from exporting tractors and farm equipment to importing eyelashes. Lloyd discovered a new eyelash that was available for the market in North America. He obtained samples and casually handed them out to a few girls at a party one night. Shortly following Lloyd was besieged for more pairs of colored eyelashes. Lloyd would become the chief designer of Cezanne Lashes. He was the front man marketing to New York, Paris, Montreal and other fashion centers. Lloyd would go on to create the ever-popular Whisper Lash. Lloyd's signature credits include his furniture business ventures. Despite some difficult times with start-up, Lloyd's creative dedication would go on to craft simpler and bolder forms of reproductions with a suitably traditional feeling. Lloyd always maintained that it was possible to evoke the past with carefully selected modern furnishings if your budget can't stretch to antiques. Lloyd has now moved on by bequeathing his body to the McMaster University for medical education and research. We wish to thank Dr. Tom Samolczyk, Dr. Glenn Martin for their compassion and kindness. Thanks also to the wonderful caregivers of Cambridge Memorial Hospital and St. Mary's General Hospital "Your family and friends will miss you."
