James "Stu" Weldon

Funeral Services for Mr. James “Stu” Weldon, age 71 of Springville, will be held on Monday, October 13, 2025 at 2:00 P.M. at Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home with Pastor Spencer Welch officiating. Burial will follow in the adjoining gardens.

Stu gained his angel wings on October 8, 2025, at his home in Blount County, Alabama, surrounded by family and friends. His gracious and merciful Father called him home quickly after his cancer diagnosis.

Over the years, Stu was known as an avid sportsman. In his later years, his love of the outdoors turned into a passion for golf—something anyone who knew him could attest to. Stu approached everything in life with dedication, determination, and a strong work ethic, giving 100% of himself in all he did.

Stu is survived by his loving wife, Terrye Weldon; sisters Becky Hamilton (Larry) and Saundra Snipes; nieces Jessica Popham (Josh), Jody Mattson (Dave), Sam Hodges (John), and Ronnie Waites (Bart); nephews Brian Snipes (Terri), BJ Meek (Cristian), Stuart Meek (Keri), and Wayne Weldon, Jr.; goddaughter Stevie Evans (Anthony); and godson Matthew Mitchell.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Hazel and Jesse Weldon; siblings Wayne Weldon, Sr., and Vicky Weldon; and nephews Lee Hamilton and Eddie Hamilton.

Pallbearers will be Stuart Meek, BJ Meek, Ken Mitchell, Dave Mattson, Anthony Evans, and Donald Graben.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Holly Springs Volunteer Fire Department, 175 County Highway 24, Springville, AL 35146.

Visitation will be held on Monday, October 13, 2025 from 1:00 P.M. until service time at 2:00 P.M. at Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home.
