Nashville, Tennessee

William Ray Webb, 77, of Nashville, passed away on Tuesday, November 19, 2024. He was preceded in death by his parents, Clara G. and William J. Webb, and a brother, Jerry M. Webb.

A proud veteran, Mr. Webb served his county with honor and dedication. He was in Vietnam from August 1969 to August 1970. His love for music and remarkable singing voice brought joy to all who knew him, whether in church or around a campfire. He was deeply committed to mentoring young people, serving as a Boy Scout assistant leader in the 80’s and a Sunday school teacher to teens, where he inspired countless lives with his wisdom, faith and kindness. He was an elder at Pasquo Church of Christ. He also devoted 32 years of loyal service to Aladdin Industries. His passion for helping others extended to his role on the Board for New Heights Christian Community Services, where he championed initiatives to uplift his community. He will be greatly missed.
