We honor the memory of brother Carl Weeks. At age 17 Carl followed in his father’s footsteps and joined the Independent Order of Odd Fellows lodge #279 in Rockville Centre. He was initiated on January 1979 and proceeded to move up the ranks and was Noble Grand from 1982 to 1984.
On the early morning of September 29,2025, Carl Weeks passed away peacefully at the age of 90. Carl was married to his Beloved wife Patricia who passed many years before him.
He was a 71-year member of the Rockville Center Fire Department where he started his time in Eureka Hook and Ladder for 10 years then Woodlands Engine #4 for 61 years. Up till his passing Carl was still active in the fire department attending department events. In the summer of 2023 Carl was given the huge honor to be the Grand Marshal of the Nassau County Parade. He was so proud and it was the greatest honor after becoming an Honorary Chief in the Department. He loved helping in his community. Rest in peace, brother Carl.
