Dallas "Butch" Weeks

Dallas passed away on April 7, 2018. He was born on October 10, 1939, in Idaho Falls, Idaho, to Orval and Afton Weeks. He was the youngest of four children. He spent the majority of his life on his family’s ranch in Swan Valley, Idaho. He was an avid hunter and fly fisherman and loved the outdoors. He would often be seen fishing on the banks of the Snake River until an unfortunate accident in 1992, left him with a severe head injury.

He was preceded in death by his beloved parents, two brothers and his late wife, Roberta. He is survived by his sister, Beverly Beckman of Georgetown, TX; his two sons, Ricky Weeks of Idaho Falls, ID and Troy (Tracy) Weeks of Swan Valley, ID; daughter, Cindy (Sandy) Rock of Meridian, ID; along with six beautiful grandchildren and four great grandchildren.

For years, the riverbank was where Your soul felt most at peace Your heart was most content when there With the fish and the geese But then, your spirit came to rest Where angels chose to roam And once equipped with ten pound test You made yourself at home.

The sky became your deep blue sea The clouds became your shore And there, for all eternity You sat with friends galore Each angel was a fisherman Who had traded his pole For golden wings and a game plan At Heaven’s Fishing Hole.

The tales you told about each catch Its stature and its girth Will live in memories unmatched As days pass here on earth Until we meet again, one day Upon God’s golden sand We’ll picture you, no other way Than with a pole in hand.
