Bruce Alvin Weir was born to Charles Edward Weir and Joyce Ailleen (Jones) Weir on July 21, 1955, in Roswell, NM, and departed this life at his home in Duncan, OK, on November 4, 2026, at the age of 71 years, 3 months and 16 days.

Bruce was born in New Mexico while his father was stationed there with the Air Force. When Bruce was in the 7th grade, his family moved back home to Duncan to be closer to relatives. He graduated from Duncan High School in 1974 and went straight to work in the oil field, both abroad and locally and then with Halliburton. Although his work took him around the globe, Duncan remained home for the rest of his life.

Bruce met Nancy on St. Patrick's Day 1979, and the two were married on May 12 of that same year, the couple made their home in Duncan and to this union two children were born. During his 23 years with Halliburton, Bruce worked both internationally and locally, offshore and on land, in places like Iran, Dubai, Kazakhstan, China, Jakarta, and Indonesia, as well as in several states here at home. Nancy and the kids would visit him when he was working in other states, and the family traveled a lot while Candice and Andy were growing up. After Halliburton, Bruce operated his own consulting business for the oil and gas industry in Pennsylvania and South Texas. After he retired, he and Nancy continued to travel together, driving to almost every state.

Bruce was a member of the Duncan Moose Lodge. He enjoyed fishing, shooting guns, working on cars and trucks, fixing up boats, and anything that kept him outdoors. Above all, he cherished spending time with his family, especially his grandkids and great-grandson.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Joyce Weir, and his brother, Ricky Weir.

He is survived by his wife, Nancy Weir of the home; a son and daughter-in-law, Andrew Nickerson and Raegan of Comanche; a daughter and son-in-law, Candice and Joshua Long of Bray; 4 grandchildren, Xzavier Nickerson and Kenzie of Duncan, Izaiah Nickerson of Comanche, Cameron Dodson and Tommi of Empire, and Hunter Nickerson and Abigail of Wichita Falls, TX; 1 great-grandson, Cooper Lee Dodson of Empire; 3 sisters, Belinda Blay of Marlow, Carolyn Johnson of Walters, and Teresa Head of Oklahoma City; a sister-in-law, Elizabeth Weir of Comanche; 2 brothers-in-law, William Nickerson and Adrianne of Westminster, MD and Jim Nickerson and Jeri of Grand Junction, CO; an aunt, Doris Revell of Duncan; a cousin, Preston Dew of Georgia; along with many other relatives and a host of friends.
