Victor Paul Weiford passed away at the age of 51 on Thursday, Sept. 9, 2021, at 2:13 p.m. due to complications from the COVID-19 virus. He was in Henrico Doctors Hospital in Richmond, VA.
Victor was born on June 19, 1970, at Greenbrier Valley Medical Center to his mother Mary Weiford.
Victor was an employee at The Greenbrier Resort for 17 years. He started in housekeeping. Victor took it upon himself to learn the necessary skills and moved up into the surveillance department in the casino for the final 11 years.
Victor lived by the words “you do not need a reason to help people.” Victor had an unwavering passion for tattooing, heavy metal music, but most of all for his family. There is nothing he wouldn’t do to ensure the happiness and well-being of his family.
Victor is survived by his wife of 31 years, Diane Weiford; first born daughter, Maria Barbour and husband Joe Barbour; son, Dereck Weiford and wife Samantha Weiford; and youngest daughter, Katie Weiford.
Memorial services will be a small, invitation only event due to COVID-19 concerns.
Victor was selfless. He was passionate about staying safe so he could take care of his family and continue going to the job he enjoyed. Think about Victor before going into your place of work if you suspect you’re sick with symptoms. Victor was a believer in, “our actions speak louder than our words.” Be kind and compassionate like Victor because it could save someone’s life.
Friends of the family ask those wishing to memorialize Victor do so by helping his youngest daughter Katie with an educational fund. Contributions can be mailed to P.O. Box 1831, Lewisburg, WV 24901.
Wallace & Wallace Funeral Home in Lewisburg is in charge of arrangements.
