Obituary

Rev. Dr. Milan G. Weerts went to his heavenly home on May 27, 2024, where he was greeted with joy and open arms.

Milan is survived by his wife of 64 years, Marjorie (Schmitt), sister Mary Ann (Scott), his children Drew Weerts (Mary), and Sara Ricker, Granddaughter Shannon (Jonathan), and great-grandson, Jenson.

Milan exhibited a thirst for learning on many different subjects, but most of all, he loved learning about his Lord and how he could share that ministry with others. His continued quest for knowledge culminated in earning his Doctorate in Theology from Pittsburgh Theological Seminary.

Milan also loved travel and traveled to as many different countries as he could for much of his adult life. He enjoyed experiencing many diverse cultures, customs, and food.
