Skilled log cutter, accomplished carpenter, scrupulously honest and hardworking, beloved father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Jay Webb, departed this earth on Thursday, Dec. 18, 2014, to join his eternal companion, Marion, who preceded him in death on Jan. 13, 2012. Funeral services were held Dec. 23 at the Lakeside Stake Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Interment followed in the Vernon Cemetery. He was born on Oct. 5, 1924, in Pinedale to Della Ray Webb and Jonathan Henry Webb, the eighth of ten children. His early childhood was spent in the Lakeside area, where he met and married Marion Brenay, the love of his life, on May 5, 1941. He was the proud father of six children, one of whom, Jamar, lived for only a few hours. Their early married life was spent in Vernon. Jay left there in 1943 to serve in the Army during World War II. Heroic actions in Germany earned Sergeant Webb a bronze star. Arriving home, he resumed working in the logging business with his father and brothers. Jay and Marion moved to Lakeside with their three small children in the early 1950s, where they remained for over 50 years. Jay was an active member of the LDS church his entire life, exemplifying Christ’s teaching by caring for others and serving in many church callings. He and Marion served as stake missionaries after they moved to Lakeside and as temple missionaries in the Mesa Temple in the 1990s. Jay will be remembered as a kind, quiet, gentle person with exceptional physical strength and endurance, and a keen, dry sense of humor. He will be missed by his family and all who knew him. Survivors include his children, Sheldon (Inez) Webb of Casa Grande/Lakeside, Diane (Scott) Hall of Kentucky, Drinette (Don) Ellison of San Tan Valley/Lakeside, who are currently serving an LDS mission in Texas, Daphne (Curtis) Scott of Saratoga Springs, Utah, and DeEdra (Richard) Breckenridge of Charlotte, N.C.; 15 grandchildren; 34 great-grandchildren; and one great-great grandson. Owens Livingston Mortuary of Show Low was in charge of the arrangements.
