Randy weaver daughters
Randy was acquitted of his serious charges but died at the age of 74 on May 11, , apparently after suffering from some health issues. Randy is survived by his three daughters, Sara, Rachel, and Elisheba, who were also with him in While Sara and Rachel were spotted in footage from the incident around the cabin, Elisheba was just ten months old at that time and was brought out of the cabin by Randy in his arms.
From the time when Sara Weaver was 16, holed up in a cabin in Ruby Ridge, and had to watch her mother and younger brother die in front of her, she knew she had to take responsibility. In an interview , Sara said she always loved and respected her parents and wanted their approval, which is why she happily participated in all the household chores even before the incident.
Being the oldest of four siblings, she had always helped her parents out with the younger children without even thinking. But after the shootouts, when only Sara, her two sisters and Randy were left in the family, she automatically took over as the matriarch and felt the need to protect her father and her sisters. The family was always very close, and as a teenager, Sara believed that everything would be fine if they all stuck together.
Sara kept blaming herself and others for at least a decade after the incident and thought she was broken as a person before she could let it all go and accept Christianity and faith in her life. In , Sara was also married to a corrections officer with whom she had a son. Sara wrote two books about the incident. After her divorce, she got married again and was with her partner Marc in , operating a horse breeding ranch near Kalispell.
Following her second book, she started discussing the incident more openly since she was ready to talk about it. Sara still feels the weight of having lost her close ones at such a young age but consciously chooses to think about the good times she spent with them. Now, she keeps her faith alive and is active on podcasts. She even keeps remembering her lost mother and brother in her posts.
To honor the memory of her mother teaching her how to weave in her teenage years, Sara also recently started a business of handwoven rugs through which she uses her talent to create something special for her customers.
