Annie Weyher

Annie (“Big A”) Weyher, a sassy, funny, devoted wife, mom, grandma, friend and family member passed away peacefully on May 27, 2026, after 92 years of living life to the fullest. Annie was born on 2/2/34 to Clarence and Marvel Nitshcke of Fremont, Ohio, and graduated from Fremont Ross High School and Toledo Hospital School of Nursing. She married the love of her life, Charles Weyher, in 1956, and they made their home in Dundee, Michigan, until retiring to their home in Lake George, Michigan in 1998. While in Dundee, Annie was the first President of the Dundee Jaycee Auxiliary, cub scout den mother, campfire girls leader, and member of the Dundee Congregational Church and Dundee Lutheran Church. Annie worked as a registered nurse at Toledo Hospital and Tecumseh Hospital before finding her true professional calling as Director of Nursing at Beach Nursing Home in Monroe, where she threw herself into advocating for her patients with a vengeance (and received the nickname “Big A” for her fierce leadership skills). Because she was always up for a new challenge, she finished up her career as an independent nursing consultant, working with nursing homes in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin that needed help maintaining their accreditation. As a nurse, Annie was never “off the clock”, taking calls from anyone and everyone in and around Dundee about whatever was ailing them, and offering sage advice. With any free time Annie had, she could be found cheering her children and grandchildren on at the little league/football/softball/lacrosse fields, baseball diamond, volleyball court or swimming pool. She also found time to quilt, sew amazing Halloween costumes, cane chairs, strip antique furniture, cook and bake, play cards, take college classes for fun, host family holiday get-togethers, throw famous wild parties, and spend time at the lake with her grandkids. Annie and Chuck also discovered that they enjoyed a few months in Florida every winter, where they had a ball fishing, playing golf and enjoying retirement. Annie is survived by her adoring children, Jeri (Mike) Kessenich and Jon (Lisa Barron) Weyher; grandkids Adam Kirk, Alex Kirk, Zach Weyher and Riley Weyher; beloved Weyher and Nitschke family members (Gary and Mary Jo Rehberg and Terry, Jane and Karla Weyher, Pat Elsholz, Jeff and Carol Morgan and Richard and Jeanne Morgan); and nieces and nephews Todd Weyher, Rachel Letourneau, Danielle (Brian) Russell, Marissa Barr, Zach Morgan, Alex Johnson, Eric Elsholz, Scott Elsholz, Kristen Knight and numerous great nieces and nephews. Annie was preceded in death by her parents, siblings Thecla Morgan and Bill Nitschke, niece Tiffany Nitschke and her husband and soulmate Charles. A Celebration of Life is being planned. Arrangements were handled by the Farwell Chapel of Stephenson-Wyman Funeral Home. On-line condolences may be left at www.stephenson-wyman.com
