Carolyn Webb

Carolyn Rahe Webb, 83, of Tyler passed away peacefully the afternoon of August 13, 2021 at Brookdale Assisted Living. A graveside service celebrating her life is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 17, 2021 at Rose Hill Cemetery, Tyler, under the direction of Caudle-Rutledge-Daugherty Funeral Home. Carolyn was born on August 12, 1938 in Houston, TX to Ira and Ida Wade and was raised in Tyler, TX. She was a graduate of Tyler High School and was a member of the Blue Brigade drill team. Carolyn went on to study at Tyler Junior College where she was a member of the famed Apache Belle dance line. After graduating from TJC Carolyn began her professional career in Tyler. She worked for the East Texas Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America, the Tyler Museum of Art and spent many years working for the Texas Health and Human Services Department. Carolyn was a wonderful woman who found immense joy when spending time with her family, shopping for leopard print items from Steinmart, and loved to sing along with southern gospel music. She will be remembered by her family as a lovingly blunt woman who said exactly what she thought, loved to laugh, and was generous with her time and money with those around her. For the last twenty years Carolyn has suffered from Alzheimer's disease which slowly brought many of her personality traits to an end, yet she never lost her smile and infectious laugh. She was a member of First Baptist Church of Lindale. Carolyn knew her Savior Jesus Christ and is now perfectly healed from this terrible disease in His presence. She was preceded in death by her husband Donald Webb. Carolyn is survived by her daughters Gwen Camp and husband Larry of Mt. Sylvan, Gina Jarman and husband Mac of Lindale, and Gail Moore and Jerry Brown of Lindale. Grandchildren: Brooke Moore, Blair Nix and husband Kaleb, Taylor Jarman and wife Morgan, Paige Buchanan and husband Johnny, Bailey Peysen and husband Jacob, Macie McCoy and husband Zack, Allie Dupnik and husband John, and Brennan Moore. Great-grandchildren: Easton Moore, Lucas Peysen, Harlow Buchanan, Hank McCoy, Haddie McCoy, Hartley McCoy, Huxley Buchanan, Henley McCoy, Wilder Nix, Quinnlee Peysen, and Hollis Buchanan. The family appreciates the excellent care and attention that the staff of Brookdale Assisted Living and Heart to Heart Hospice gave to Carolyn as she fought these final years against Alzheimer's disease. They took excellent care of her needs and served her well until the end. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Alzheimer’s Alliance of Smith County. Family will receive friends thirty minutes prior to the graveside service at Rose Hill Cemetery, Tyler.
