Lee Jerome Webster

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7

A memorial service for Mr. Lee Jerome Webster, 67, of Hot Springs, AR, will be held at 2:00 P.M. on Friday, February 13, 2026, First Methodist Church (3900 Loop Rd. Monroe, LA 71201) with Pastor Chuck Huffman officiating. Visitation will be held from 12:00 P.M. until service time at the church.

Lee was born February 14, 1958, in Monroe, LA, and passed away on February 5, 2026, in Monroe. Lee was a beloved man whose life was defined by love, generosity, and unwavering devotion to his family. A cherished sweetie to Toni, dad to Jonathan, Mary, and MacKenzie, Pawpaw to his 9 grandchildren, brother to Lisa, and friend to many. He was a doer, a helper, and a fixer always ready to lend a hand, solve a problem, or quietly step in wherever he was needed most.

Above all, Lee loved his nine grandchildren fiercely. They were the light of his life, and he found his greatest joy in the time he spent with them. One of his most treasured traditions was delivering donuts to each of his grandchildren every Saturday morning. A simple act that became a lasting symbol of his love and steady presence in their lives.

Lee will be remembered for his servant’s heart, his strength, and the way he made those around him feel cared for and supported. His legacy lives on in the family he adored and in the many lives he touched through his kindness. He will be deeply missed and forever loved.

Lee was a member of Diamondhead Community Church in Hot Springs, AR. He also attended St. Matthew’s Catholic Church and St. Paul’s United Methodist Church and Lea Joyner United Methodist Church during his time in Monroe. Lee graduated from River Oaks Academy in 1977 and then went on to Northeast University. He was an Eagle Scout. Lee owned Pop-A-Lock in Monroe, LA.

He was preceded in death by his father, Jerome W. Webster; and mother, Mary Krough Webster.

Survivors include his love, Toni Hudgens; children, Jonathan Webster (Lindsey), Mary Rachal (Ryan) and Mackenzie Noren (Chris); sister, Mary Lisa Lonsberry (Bruce); grandchildren, Lola and Audrey Webster, Mary Carlyle, Marshall and Mac Rachal, Caroline, Camille, Charlotte, and Claire Noren.

In addition Lee leaves behind his nieces, Kathryn Wiater (Kevin) and children Ben and Brooke, and Mary Alissa Lonsberry. Extended family, Kim Green (Keith) and daughter Shelbi, son Tyson Baldwin (Brittani) and son Creed, daughter Cynthia Darragh (Dillun) and daughters Adalynn and Brynleigh, Ron Hudgens (Joe) and sons Hansel and Joey and James Buchanan and daughter KK, and his Minnesota Krough family.

The family would like to honor Lee’s circle of friends; Mike Flemister, Jeff Ferracci, Byron Domangue, Kevin Caballero, S.J. Cicero, Cleve Tarver, Carl Mitchell, Tim Hardin, Mike Haddad, Marty Grassi, Joe Smith, John Funderberg, Chip Burton, Daniel Wood, Keith O’Brian, Kevin Guess, and many more. We find comfort in knowing he is happy to be reunited with friends Larry Cobb, Phillip Ragland (Snake), Bobby Schwab and Steve McCall.

The family would also like to thank the wonderful nurses, aids, and staff of Encore Heart Hospital in Bryant, AR for their loving care of our “pleasantly cranky” Lee.

Also special thanks and appreciation to Pastor Chuck Huffman who spent many hours comforting and praying for Lee during his most recent hospital stay.

A second memorial service will be held at Diamondhead Community Church on Sunday, February 15, 2026, at 2pm.
