== Early life==
Weller was born in [[New Orleans]], [[Louisiana]], the son of lawyers Carole (died <!--Tuesday, April 11, -->2017<!--Age 88-->) and Francis Weller (<!--August 9, -->1922-1922–<!-- April 5, -->2018).<ref name="NY Times 2003" /><ref>{{Cite web |title=Carole Breithoff Weller Obituary (2017) |publisher=[[The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate|The Times-Picayune]] |quote=Carole was one of the first 50 female lawyers in the State of Louisiana. She continued to practice law until 6 months ago, and she argued before the Louisiana Fourth Circuit Court of Appeal only 2 months before she was diagnosed with renal cancer. Carole was able to balance a law practice with raising a family, at a time when this type of dual role was almost unheard-of. Her unconditional love for her husband and sons lasted until the very end of her life;|url=https://obits.nola.com/us/obituaries/nola/name/carole-weller-obituary?id=16850770 |date=14 April 2017|access-date=18 September 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220918042816/https://obits.nola.com/us/obituaries/nola/name/carole-weller-obituary?id=16850770|archive-date=18 September 2022|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="times-picayune_2018">{{Cite news |title=Francis G.
