Bertram "Skip" Weiss

January 15, 1954 - April 9, 2021

On April 9, 2021, Bertram E. “Skip” Weiss peacefully slipped his earthy bonds and away from us. He was 67. Among his many talents, he was an avid horseman and will be remembered by many in the community for his involvement as a teen in the re-enactment of Paul Revere’s 1774 ride through Burlington County. A former member of the E-Z Rods car club, his pride and joy was a 1959 Chevrolet Biscayne designed to throw flames from the exhaust during shows. As an employee of Fial Trucking, Skip enjoyed his career as a truck driver and made many friends along the way. Skip is survived by his fiancée, Lorraine Smith, who lovingly cared for him these last few decades and to whom he was lovingly devoted, his biological son Bart, who also resides locally, along with his sister Bobbie Weiss McCarty (John) of North Carolina, his beloved niece Taylor McCarty (Eric) of Massachusetts as well as step-son Ian Smith (Laura) of Maryland, step-daughter Rachael Smith-Eible (Edward) of Florida, and his grandchildren Brianna and Brandon, and step-granddaughter Sophia. He was pre-deceased by his son Brett, and his parents Emil L. and Edith M. Weiss. His faithful canine companion, Austin, will sorely miss his master. A memorial service for Skip will be held at the Perinchief Chapels, 438 High St. Mt Holly, NJ 08060 on Thursday, April 15, 2021. Friends may visit with the family from 3:00 – 4:30 pm and a Memorial Service will follow at 4:30pm.
