Weldon John Sparks Jr. (Chub) passed away at St Pat’s Hospital on November 5, 2019 of natural causes.
He was born March 18, 1942 in Hays, MT. He grew up in Malta before he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and was honorably discharged. He returned home to Montana to work and raise his family. He spent the majority of his life working at St Pat’s where he made many lifelong friends. A “unique” sense of humor accompanied him wherever he went. After retiring, he continued to spend time doing the things that he loved. Hunting and fishing in Eastern Montana with his kids and grandkids, spending time at Flathead Lake, skydiving in Hawaii and working around his home with his dog, Wendy to name just a few.
Weldon was an amazing father and grandfather. He was a selfless man who would offer help to anyone without ever being asked. He loved his family and friends meant everything to him. He will be missed by so many.
Weldon was preceded in death by his longtime companion and wife, Marjorie Lee Christopher Sparks.
