Mary K. Webb

Mary Katherine Webb, 89, passed away Nov. 15, 2017 in Spring Hill, Fla.

Mrs. Webb was born in McKenzie, Tenn., in 1928, the daughter of E.L. “Lee” and Ida Sutton, the fourth of five children in that family. In 1946 she married Robert W. “Bob” Webb, also of McKenzie, and a decorated World War II combat veteran.

Mrs. Webb’s life as a wife and mother was focused on her family and her Christian faith. She
was humble, understated and content in simple pleasures. Throughout the years, her hobbies
included gardening, sewing, tatting, fishing and tastefully repurposing items that others
discarded as junk. She also helped design and decorate three homes she and Robert built from etchings made on cardboard boxes. Her homes, like her demeanor, were genuine country. 

Mrs. Webb was predeceased by her daughter Rosemary (2002, age 53) and husband Robert (2003, age 81). She is survived by her caregivers, son Jeff and daughter-in-law Nancy, and grandchildren Elizabeth, Meredith, Sarah and Stacey, several nephews, nieces and great-grandchildren.

A service (date to be determined) will be held in McKenzie, Tenn., and interment will be at
Shiloh Cemetery, only a few hundred yards from Mrs. Webb’s childhood home.

Friends who wish to express their condolences are asked to make a memorial contribution in
Mrs. Webb’s name to Northcliffe Baptist Church in Spring Hill, and specify it be forwarded to her Sunday School group, the King’s Daughters.
