In spite of his battle with stage four cancer, Lt. Col. Mark Weber of the Minnesota National Guard sings "Tell My Father", a Civil War era song, with his son at the Minnesota History Center in Saint Paul on June 14. Weber also told his story and gave an emotional Army Birthday address earlier.

Weber died June 2013 of gastrointestinal cancer. He was 41.
