Donald C. Weber, 88, of Oxford, Ohio, passed away on October 8, 2013, in Oxford.
Born in Wausau, Wisconsin, he grew up in Marathon City, Wisconsin, and enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving initially in WWII and again in the Korea. In between his two enlistments, he attended the University of Wisconsin, and, in 1949, graduated with a degree in education.
Weber returned to the University of Wisconsin after his second enlistment, this time earning a master’s degree in mathematics in 1954.
He worked as a teacher and an actuary in North Dakota and Wisconsin for several years before returning to graduate school at North Carolina State University in 1963. He earned a PhD in biomathematics from North Carolina State in 1970. He spent the rest of his career as a professor of statistics at Miami University, until retiring in 1989.
Weber was a devout Christian and longtime active member of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Hamilton, Ohio. His other passions included teaching, travel, classical music, and Miami sports, especially basketball and football. Condolences may be sent online.
