April 1, 2025 at 4:21 pmI am a friend from years ago. My friend Damon considered Weston to be a longtime close friend and I’m grateful I got to know him. As a small tribute to his work in STEM and his shared love for the City of San Francisco, I made a donation in his memory to the California Academy of Sciences. Sending love and warmth to all who knew, loved, and cherished Weston.
