IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Lynn
Webber
November 16, 1930 – June 11, 2025
Lynn (Laura Evelyn) Webber, 94, of Severna Park, Maryland passed away on June 11, 2025.
Lynn was born in Collinsville, Oklahoma, on November 16, 1930 to Verna and Charles Howard. She was raised in Skiatook, OK as the youngest of five children. She grew up in the kitchen of Howard Cafe, her parents' restaurant.
The family moved to Denver when she was 15, where she stayed until she went to college. She got her degree in English with a minor in physical education from Oklahoma A&M (now OSU). She met her husband of 66 years, Richard (Dick) Webber, while attending Oklahoma A&M in Stillwater. Dick was stationed in Oklahoma while in the Air Force. They met playing a card game called Pig at the Wesley Foundation. Lynn and Dick were married on November 21, 1951.
They lived in Denver until Dick finished in the Air Force. They then moved to Michigan so Dick could complete his Masters at University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. They lived in student housing while increasing their family to include 5 children. Their 6th child was born soon after graduation.
The family lived in Ann Arbor until 1971 when Dick accepted a job at Westinghouse and moved to Severna Park.
Lynn was a busy homemaker. Her favorite activities outside the home were volleyball, bowling, bridge, and church. She played volleyball in college and continued until her knees told her to quit. Lynn began bowling when she was pregnant with her 6th child because they offered free babysitting. She continued to bowl until this year at the age of 94. Lynn and Dick played couples bridge which branched into Lynn playing in many friendly groups for her entire life. Lynn was quite a seamstress, sewing clothes for her family, completing many needle work projects, including cross-stitching personalized beach towels for every member of her family.
For over 50 years Lynn was very active at Severna Park United Methodist Church. She was a central force in the kitchen, preparing dinners, receptions, providing hospitality to many. She was well known for selling pecans for UMW and for her caramel popcorn at ASP auctions. The first week of May and October you would find her busy preparing food for workers and shoppers at the church garage sale. Lynn was an alto in the Sanctuary Choir since joining the church and also played in the handbell choir.
Without a doubt, Lynn's favorite place to be was with her family, gathered around the table for a meal or a card game.
Lynn is preceded in death by her husband Richard Charles Webber. Her memory is cherished in the hearts of her children: Glyn (Carolyn), Lezlie, Randy (Heidi), Kerri, Laura (Jack), and Megan; along with her adoring grandchildren: Andy (Nora), Michael (Scott), Shea (Alex), Jennifer (Chris), Jonathan (Cait), Britney (Cliff), Tanner (Tori), Trisha (Brandon), and Megan (Alex). She was blessed to have twenty great-grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held on July 14, 2025, at 11:00 am at Severna Park United Methodist Church, 731 Benfield Rd., Severna Park, MD. Following the service there will be a reception in the church fellowship hall. Interment of ashes will be in the Memorial Garden for family only. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Severna Park United Methodist Church.
