Rodger Weaver
Weaver, a Missouri member, is writing a book entitled SLIM unscripted. This true life narrative parallels Rodger’s current personal battle – dealing with paralysis and incurable cancer - as he
reflects on his childhood with a colorful and eye witness account of his father, the legendary Sheriff L.L. “Slim” Weaver. Slim, almost seven feet tall inclusive of a Stetson, never carried a gun in his 22 year career as a lawman. Weaver’s proceeds from the book will be donated to St. Jude’s. The book will be available mid-July. To pre-order, contact him at slim.unscripted@gmail.com.
