The Bakersfield Californian 
Webb, Betty     
1922 - 2006 
 
Betty Webb 
Sept. 5, 1922 - Jan. 2, 2006 
Services: Mon., Jan. 9, 11:00 a.m. 

Betty was born to Frank and Verna Weisenstein in Butler County, PA, on 
September 5, 1922, where she was raised on an active dairy farm. She spent her 
first thirty years in Butler County and, toward the end of World War II, 
turned to the trade of welding on Pullman Standard railcars. She moved to 
Southern California in 1957, and married Archie Webb in February 1958. 
Although she was an at-home wife and mother for a number of years, she 
eventually worked in retail supervision. Selfless service is really what Betty 
was all about. Whatever Betty did, it was never about herselfshe loved to make 
others happy and often did so through food preparation! Her grandchildren will 
always remember how she assured they had something yummy to go home on. 
Service to her Lord and Savior was above all else, however. Over the past 47 
years, she organized events and assisted Archie in leadership roles at various 
churches in So. California. Archie and Betty moved to Bakersfield in November 
2001 and, in September 2002, for her 80th birthday, the Rotary Club of 
Bakersfield honored her with a Paul Harris Fellowship. Betty never met a 
stranger and adopted anyone who would let her! She went home to be with the 
Lord on January 2, 2006, after suffering a stroke, and she is rejoicing in 
Heaven with those that have gone before her that were blessed to call her mom, 
grandma, and friend. The void she leaves can never be filled; all who knew her 
are grateful for the experience.and an experience it always was! She was 
preceded in death by her sister, Mirian Kress; brother, Howard Weisenstein; 
son, Carl Snyder; and grandson, Carl Snyder, Jr. She is survived by her 
devoted and faithful husband of nearly 48 years, Archie; brother, Paul 
Weisenstein; daughters and sons-in-law, Linda and Chester Webb, Holly and Doug 
Culhane, Suzanne and Earl Kuhlman, and daughter-in-law, Cheri Snyder, along 
with 10 grandchildren and their spouses, and 7 great-grandchildren. A 
Celebration of Life service will be held at Laurelglen Bible Church, at 11:00 
a.m., on Monday, January 9, with luncheon immediately following, and interment 
on January 10, at 9:00 a.m., at Riverside National Cemetery. In lieu of 
flowers, donations may be made to Focus on the Family (Colorado Springs, CO) 
or Youth for Christ/USA (Denver, CO) in Bettys memory.
