    • Full Obituary

      Phyllis Ruth Webb, age 83 of rural Albion, IL passed from this life to the next on Friday, March 26, 2021 at Deaconess Midtown Hospital, Evansville, IN
      Phyllis was born in Allendale, IL on July 1, 1937 to Bryan E. and Ruth (Lutz) Bell.
      She married Loren “Buck” Webb on April 4, 1958 in Carmi, IL and they have enjoyed almost 63 years of life’s journey together.
      Phyllis was the family “chronicle-er;” keeping newspaper clippings of everything her family, friends and classmates were involved in. She kept excellent records and photographs of family trips, reunions and everyday life; organizing them in binders so they can be enjoyed again and again. Phyllis was very family oriented. She absolutely doted on her only granddaughter, Rachel and let her know she was the light of her life. She also cared deeply for each family member, making everyone feel as if they were special to her. She will be remembered as a beloved wife, mother and grandmother.
      She was preceded in death by her parents and two brothers, Neil and Harvey.
      Phyllis is survived by her husband, Loren “Buck” Webb, daughter Kay Ann (Paul Ehlert) Newell of Alabama, sons Steve (Rhonda) Webb and Daniel Webb, granddaughter, Rachel (James Adams) Webb, two sisters, Leta Kay Woods and Joyce (John) Daniel, all of Mt Carmel, IL, sister-in-law, Terry Bell of Centralia, IL, brothers-in-law, Bruce (Clara Nell) Webb of Grayville, IL and Bob Briscoe of Wadesvile, IN. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins.
      Graveside Services will be held at 2PM on Tuesday, March 30, 2021 at Bethel Cemetery, Ellery, IL.
      Memorials are encouraged to the Wabash Christian Village, Carmi, IL and the Edwards County Senior Citizens.

      If Aunt Phyllis hadn’t kept checking in on me and showing me love all these years, I’m not sure I’d be here today. It’s such a blessing to know she’s home with Jesus. The last few years that was a constant in our conversations “ I’m ready any time He wants to take me”. I love you all and am grieving with you yet rejoicing with tears❤️

      What a beautiful lady and beloved mother and grandmother. Of one thing I am certain—-she is flying high today among the angels…and now she’s an angel watchin’ over you❤️❤️
      Sending love and my sincere sympathy to all…
