Virgil was born the son of Claude and Pauline (Wiley) Weis on May 24, 1934, in Beverly, Kansas. Around the age of seven, his family moved to the Braymer, Missouri, area, where Virgil spent his whole life. He graduated from Braymer High School in 1953.

To this union, three children were born. They were married for 64 years. Upon his return home from the Army, they started a lifelong career as farmers, and had a Grade A Dairy for many years.
After retiring from the dairy business, Virgil had several other jobs as they continued to farm. He was a hard worker and was always doing something.
