Ruston Daily News Leader - January 27, 2013
JUNE B. WEBB

June B. Webb passed away on January 24, 2013. Services will be held at 3:00 PM 
on Sunday, January 27, 2013 at Trinity United Methodist Church in Ruston, LA. 
Visitation will be held at the church from 2-3PM prior to the service. Born on 
January 26, 1920, June was the daughter of Willie Walker Baird and John 
Freeman Baird. She graduated as a Registered Nurse from St. Luke’s Hospital of 
Nursing in Bluefield, West VA. June was a proud World War II veteran. She 
served in New Caledonia in the South Pacific as a second lieutenant in the 
Army Nurses Corps. While stationed there she met and married Army Captain Roy 
D. Webb in 1944. They were married for 49 1/2 years.
 
While raising her family in Mansfield, LA, June was an active member of First 
Baptist Church for over 60 years and served her church faithfully in many 
capacities. After moving to Ruston, La, she became a member of Trinity United 
Methodist Church. June loved her new church and attended Bible Study, M&M and 
Circle. June, better known as “June Bug” enjoyed life and brought a sense of 
fun to any activity. She loved her family and friends without reservation and 
enjoyed entertaining them with her great cooking. She was an avid reader and 
gardener, loved to play bridge and any type of card game, enjoyed dancing and 
especially traveling with the “Girls of October”. Her love of “bling” was 
appreciated by all who knew her. 

June found her true calling in the nursing profession and many patients 
benefited from her TLC in Dr. Segura’s office and in the OR in Desoto General 
Hospital. After retirement she continued to be a wonderful caretaker to many 
in her life.
 
In 1994 June was honored as woman of the Year by Beta Sigma Phi Sorority. She 
was recognized for her years of service to her country, her community and her 
church.
 
June was preceded in death by her husband Roy, long time Sheriff of Desoto 
Parish, her parents, and her brothers and sister. She is survived by her three 
children: Pamela Webb, Joe Webb and wife Joy, Linda Tuten and husband Jim; 
grandchildren Stacey Feken and husband Max, Shannon Sumrall, Kim Webb, and 
Sara Sumrall; and great grandchildren Sara Grace Razer, Grayson Razer, Sophie 
Feken and Graham Feken.
 
The family would like to thank all who supported them in love, prayers, and 
concerns. A heartfelt thank you goes to Tender Touch and PHC Hospice for the 
care and comfort provided to June and the family. 

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Louisiana Baptist Children’s Home 
and the Methodist Children’s Home.
