John Weaver-Hudson

HARTFORD - John Weaver-Hudson was born on Aug. 10, 1958, in Detroit to Louis Hudson and his wife, Kathleen (nee Weaver). He was adopted into the family of God by the washing of holy baptism on Dec. 10, 1969.

John was an avid student all of his life. He attended elementary and secondary schools in Oak Park and Birmingham. He received a B.A. in German and Religion from Oberlin College in 1979, an M. Div. from the seminary program at Earlham School of Religion in Richmond, Ind., in 1984, an M.A. in classical languages from Loyola University in 1996 and a Doctor of Theology Degree from the University of Zululand in South Africa in 2008.

After his graduation from the seminary in 1984, he served as Pastor at UCC Congregational and Baptist churches in Ohio and Illinois. For confessional reasons, he applied for and was accepted by colloquy into the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod in 2001. As part of the colloquy process, he attended a semester at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in Mequon, Wis. and also served as vicar/pastoral assistant at Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church in Milwaukee, Wis., and at St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Livonia. In 2002, the Lord called him to serve as pastor of Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church of Hartford, where he served faithfully for the rest of his days.

On Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2009, the Lord in his wisdom and love took the soul of Pastor Weaver-Hudson from this vale of tears to himself in heaven. He is survived by his parents. His time on earth was 50 years, 5 months and 17 days.

The Christian funeral service to honor Pastor Weaver-Hudson's life will take place at 1 p.m. Monday, Feb. 2, at the Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church, 205 Bennett Avenue, Hartford. Pastor Paul S. Naumann will serve as officiant. His remains will be interred at Grandlawn Cemetery in Detroit, where they wait for the sure and certain resurrection to eternal life in Christ.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in John's name be made to the Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church. The family has entrusted the Calvin Funeral Home, Hartford, with handling the arrangements.

Be there or be square, lads. If Sponge Bob is over in time I plan to make it.

Is this "Christian funeral service" anything like the Egyptian thing, where they put stuff in the tomb for the afterlife? If so, here's some great gift ideas:

Nice idea, but I'm thinking you should find something a little more in keeping with the Janko we all know and loved:

Important Message from Uncle Janko

Hi sports fans, it is me, John Weaver-Hudson, your old Uncle Janko.?

Rarely do I find manufactured goods worthy of my personal endorsement.
But these are special creations that no Christian should be without:

I encourage you to buy each and every one of these fine products. I have found them to be both inspirational and motivational, and I am sure you will too.?


My personal favorite is the Baby Jesus model. What would Jesus do? It is fun to consider the possibilities.

When the Lord Jesus Christ is with you, you shall not want. May God bless you and watch over all of you, especially those who purchase these fine products.

Don, do you think we could arrange to have a couple of cases of "these fine products" delivered to the Hope Lutheran Church around, say, 1:00 pm on Monday? I'm sure the 60-member congregation would appreciate the gesture.

I am very sad that some of you see fit to be nasty. Whether or not you liked Janko is not the issue here. The issue is simple human decency. You condemn Janko yet act just like your accusastions about him. Shame, shame on those of you who have no decency or moral compass.man is dead.  A man whose mother and father are grief stricken and near death themselves.

Every keyboard sociopath has or had parents and family...did that prevent them from being nasty and from running character assassination campaigns? What would their parents/families think of their 'online alter egos' behaving like complete freaks?
Of course nobody knew in real life besides a few 'buddies', half of whom he spent half the time worshiping and half the time wishing they rotted in hell...

You are right Richard, this is indeed a terrible tragedy.? Alone in the vehicle when he died...it's all just so senseless.

Why couldn't Janko have been driving the car pool van, taking Homeless Gus, Stalking George, Tailpipe Chip, Gay Al and Degreemill Klempner to the Mark Israel Memorial Bike Race?? Then when he crashed and burned he could have taken a few more useless assholes along with him.?

Hey!
What about Gregg?!

Hey!
Don't forget this:

So uncle Junko, the evil-minded malicious freak is gone! Good riddance! I was wondering why the air seems to be cleaner since last Tuesday.

The nauseating obituaries over at DD can make you puke on your computer. I never understood why when someone is dead should be respected more than when he was alive and all his evilness and malice be forgotten.

The other evil-minded malicious freak, Gollin, is still at work at DD, gleefully posting big photos of people punished with excess severity for minor offences, while his pedophile buddies are still at large.

Gollin's obituary to Junko was the Tibetan wheel of life and death. Was that a premonition that the wheel is reaching the point of no return for him too? Should we hope his posts at DD are probably his last gasps of malice and glee at other people's suffering?

I'm narcoleptic, it's 5 AM and freezing, think I'll go for a drive.
What could go wrong?

This shows that he didn't really care about other people. A narcoleptic driving a car on a slippery road!!! He could have easily caused an accident involving other cars too with people in them, or run over pedestrians.

Funny how death reveals the truth about life. The guy was a self-absorbed, self-obsessed, selfish narcissistic asshole.

You would think he might have rented "An Officer and a Gentlemen" once to get a clue. Mayonaisse by itself is no good, but makes a sandwich better. No wife, no family, no life...what a sad case. All alone, spewing his hatred and blaming others for his sorry existence.

Yes, thank god the bastard didn't take 8 or 10 innocents to hell along with his worthless ass.

Not at $55 a "unit." For that kind of money we could get hookers parachuting into the parking lot.

Or how about the Goodyear blimp, displaying "GOOD RIDDANCE YOU BASTARD!" in blinking lights.

Or a sound truck circling the church blasting The Ramones "Glad to see you go go go go goodbye! Glad to see you go go go go goodbye!"

Or all of the above!

I'm sure the 60-member congregation would appreciate the gesture.

It's Monday so you gotta figure about half of them might actually still have jobs they have to go to. Then about half of the rest probably hated the guy too or otherwise wouldn't want to waste a nice afternoon on such trivia. So if you count the janitor and the mailman twice there might only be a dozen people there, tops.

An old fashioned stink bomb ought to be good enough to clear out that lot. Although anybody who would show up in the first place might not notice it.

Or how about the Goodyear blimp, displaying "GOOD RIDDANCE YOU BASTARD!" in blinking lights.

Funny you should mention it, Don. The crew of the DL Truth blimp immediately went into action Friday upon hearing the good news. They will be appearing in the sky over Hartford, Michigan on Monday with an illuminated and inspirational message for all to see. Then it's on to Detroit for the burial at Grandlawn Cemetery.

Sorry, but no parachuting hookers...this time. Federal law prohibits interstate transportation of women for immoral porpoises. But don't worry, we're stockpiling them for when Gregg DesElms finally croaks.

I'm also pleased to announce that thanks to an anonymous donor in Champaign, Illinois, the Calvin Funeral Home of Hartford, Michigan will be passing out personal vibrators, keychain condoms and chocolate vaginas to everyone in attendance on Monday! It should be a fitting tribute to our beloved pastor.
