Webb, William A.

William “Junie” Webb was born on February 16, 1958, and raised in Pulaski County, where he was educated and rooted in family and community. Known by many names — “Sweet Willy,” “Jack Webb” during his Army years, and “Junie” to those closest — he lived a life filled with joy, humor, and warmth.

He proudly served his country abroad in the United States Army in the 70s. When he returned, he embraced life with passion — whether it was fishing, gardening, cooking, or enjoying time in front of his big screen. A masterful storyteller and natural comedian, Junie had the gift of lifting spirits wherever he went.

He found great joy in the kitchen, and while he could cook a little bit of everything, Pork N’ Beans remained his forever favorite.

Junie was a faithful Deacon and Usher at First Baptist Church on Magazine Street, where he served with humility, grace, and joy.

He entered eternal rest on Saturday, July 26, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of faith, family and laughter.
