Kenneth Herman Webb, age 91, of Sunbright, went home to be with the Lord on October 8, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. He was the last of his generation.

Herman was a proud graduate of Sunbright High School and served honorably in the U.S. Army during the Korean War.

He was a lifelong member of White Oak Baptist Church, which was built on land donated by his family. He raised his children in the same Christian heritage in which he was raised.

Herman was a dedicated farmer who raised cattle and hay. He later retired from TVA. In his free time, he enjoyed coon hunting with his favorite dog, Ole Bruton, and riding his side-by-side. He never met a stranger and loved visiting with everyone he met.

He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Lenna Mae Huckaby Webb; sons, Kenneth Allen and Dennis Ray Webb; and step-grandson, Sean Griffith. He was also preceded by his parents, Isham and Mary Edna Sexton Webb; brothers, Sevier (Lois), Sam (Josephine), William Riley, Raymond (Thelma), IJ (Doris June); and sisters, Florida Marie (Idle) Newport, Juanita Alice (Arnold) Maden, and Delphia Odessia (Charles) Snow.

Herman is survived by his children: Danny (Valerie) Webb, Sheila (Tim) Freels, Lisa (Jim) Smith; and daughter-in-law, Karen Webb. Grandchildren: Shalenia (Jacob) Freytag, Austin (Hillary) Webb, Jacob (Beth) Freels, Ethan (Faith) Webb, Chelsea (Skyler) Bunch, Noah (Courtney) Freels, and Ansley Smith. Great-grandchildren: Colson, McKinley, Brooklyn, Adalynn, Brooklyn, Emerson, Remi, Aleena, Tucker, Everlee, Ruthie, Emmalyn, Emmett, and one baby girl on the way.

He also leaves behind a very special caregiver, Sarah Prewitt, whom he thought the world of, along with a host of dear friends, nieces, and nephews.

Services will be held on Saturday, October 11, 2025, from 1:00–3:00 PM, with the funeral beginning at 3:00 PM at Schubert Funeral Home in Wartburg, TN, with Bro. Charles Webb officiating. Interment will follow in the Sunbright Cemetery.
