Her vehicle went out of control during a heavy snowstorm, crossed into oncoming traffic, and collided with a tractor-trailer.
Ranger Weir had served as a seasonal law enforcement park ranger with the National Park Service for 11 years and had just graduated from FLETC as a full-time law enforcement ranger. She is survived by her mother and sister.
