The Family would like to mention the following Angels through their journey, Rick Webb and the Webb House Staff, each and every one! Their compassion has been a blessing. The nurses and Pastor with Gentiva Hospice who always had the right words to say, and McMinnville Funeral Home for easing this process. Without these Angels that devote their lives to making our Loved Ones comfortable we know this journey would have been different. The family will be having a Celebration of Life on Saturday, May 04, 2024, from 2:00 P.M. until 4:00 P.M. at McMinnville Funeral Home. Thumbs Up RW
