Our beloved husband, father, and grandfather, John Wayne Webb, passed away Sunday, April 12, 2015 at his home in Taylorsville, Utah, surrounded by his family. Wayne was born in Ogden, Utah, Sept 4, 1928 to Heber John and Grace Carol Call Webb. He was raised primarily in Lehi, UT, graduating from Lehi High School in 1946. Served in the US Navy during wartime from July 1946 to July 1948. Attended Weber College, majoring in music, and Brigham Young University, graduating in Accounting.

They raised their 6 children in Taylorsville, Utah. Grandfather to 19 grandchildren and 29 great-grandchildren. An active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he served as a missionary in the Western States Mission. Served as bishop, counselor in the stake presidency, and many years as stake financial clerk. His firm faith in his beliefs was both his life's compass and his anchor. Wayne's mind was sharp and his memory keen all his life despite suffering a debilitating stroke at the age of 49, after which he fought his way back to recovery. Always determined to overcome any obstacles and setbacks life presented him, he forged ahead in all he pursued and was successful in his many tasks and responsibilities. He could be depended upon 100 percent of the time. He was unfailingly loyal to those he served and loved, especially to his family. He was a devout BYU football and basketball fan.
