Dear Susan and the Webb Family,
We are so saddened to hear of Dee’s passing and offer our most sincerest condolences to you.
Working with Dee was always a pleasure. He was, in my mind the most amazing representative of the Company. Always involved, always part of the solution and always fun to be around. If you wanted to know what was happening in Pine Bluff and Jefferson county, Dee always had the answer.
He was a good friend and I’ll always remember him fondly with great respect.
Love Hugh

It saddens me to hear of the Heavenly going celebration of this man who was a significant small part for me being where I am, and who I am today. He openly welcomed me into his home and was my initial contact to the only college (Ouachita Baptist University) that offered me a scholarship to play football. I am eternally grateful to God for him that he thought that much of me to make a call to make that happen. From it became a life entrenched in long lasting friendships. Many years later I would finally catch up to him to offer my thanks and gratitude, and invited him to golf with me. He expressed that he was too feeble for that and offered kind words. I regret not being able to see him other than on social media posts traveling the world with his loving and beautiful wife. I gave all I had to Ouachita because he gave a little for me, which was a word of recommendation. Thanks Dee Webb for being a heaven-sent answered prayer and conduit to help bridge a significant gap in my life.

Oh gosh! I so enjoyed the times that I got to hang out with the Webb’s and Mitchell’s! What a fun group! Dee always had something sarcastic to say and I did my best to compete with him! I know he will be sorely missed by his family and friends. I’m sure he’s looking down and thinking of a witty comeback to this now!
