He also attended Baton Rouge Community College, Delgado Community College as well as Louisiana State University. In an August Facebook post, Weber said that he had adopted a dog from a local animal welfare society.
He had been a DJ in the local community. One of his colleagues in the field, Roxanne Hare, told the Advocate, “It’s not just a cliché that he always had a smile on his face. He was a fun guy.
He always treated me and everyone around him well. He had a creative spirit. It would be just like him to try to pull something like this off.”
In his DJ career, Weber went by the moniker, The Real Steven.
