Tawana Lee Webb

Tawana Kuykendall Webb, age 92, passed peacefully on May 19, 2026, at her home in Coarsegold, California, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on February 1, 1934, to Lee and Lola (Wood) Kuykendall, Tawana lived a life centered on faith, family, and caring for others. She was preceded in death by her beloved daughter, Roberta Ann Spomer; her loving son, Daniel Curtis Webb; her granddaughter, Susannah Hanson; her son-in-law, Danny Jay Morton Sr.; her grandson-in-law, Dustin Alexander Freeman; her brother, Jack Kuykendall; and her parents, Lee and Lola (Wood) Kuykendall. She is survived by her devoted husband of 75 years, Armond C. Webb, age 99; her daughters, Brenda Morton and Cara Hanson; her remaining 12 grandchildren, 31 great-grandchildren, 5 great-great-grandchildren, and many extended family members and dear friends who loved her deeply. Just one day before her passing, Tawana and Armond celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary, a milestone that reflected the extraordinary love and devotion they shared throughout their lives together. After raising her children, Tawana returned to school and became a Licensed Vocational Nurse. She worked at North Acres Manor in Kingsburg, California, and later at Fort Miley Veterans Hospital in San Francisco, caring for others with the same kindness, compassion, and gentle spirit she showed her own family. Tawana's greatest joy was her family. She had a gift for making everyone feel welcome, loved, and well-fed. She was an exceptional cook and rarely let anyone leave her home hungry. Whether it was a holiday gathering, Sunday dinner, or an unexpected visit, feeding people was one of the many ways she showed her love. A woman of deep faith, Tawana loved singing Christian hymns and gospel songs, often harmonizing with family members at every get together. Armond lovingly called her "Mama," and together they could often be found singing side by side. They faithfully attended Church of Christ together in Coarsegold and looked forward to that weekly visit with dear friends. She loved reading, crossword puzzles, crocheting, quilting, playing dominoes. Many of her grandchildren still treasure the precious blankets she lovingly crocheted just for them. She also loved coffee and was known to share that love with her grandchildren when they were young, sneaking them a sip or two and creating memories they still smile about today. One of Tawana's favorite traditions was making the long trip back to Oklahoma for family reunions. Year after year, she willingly endured countless miles on the road with Grandpa behind the wheel, a feat the family agrees deserves special recognition. No matter how long the drive or how adventurous Grandpa's driving might be, Tawana never complained because being with the people she loved was always worth it. Those reunions brought her endless joy and created memories her family will cherish forever. Above all, Tawana will be remembered for her unwavering faith, warm hugs, loving heart, and the way she made everyone feel like family. We find comfort in knowing she has been reunited with those who went before her and is now singing in Heaven in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Her love for life, joyful laughter, and deep devotion to family are gifts she planted in each of us. We will carry those gifts forward, honoring her memory by loving one another as she did, keeping our family close, and striving to live with the same kindness, grace, and strength that she showed every day. Though she is no longer with us, her spirit and the lessons she taught us will continue to guide our family for generations to come. Funeral services will be held 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM Tuesday, June 9th, 2026 at Salser & Dillard Creighton Chapel, 1588 Lincoln Street, Kingsburg. Services have been entrusted to Salser & Dillard Creighton Chapel. Memorial Tributes and condolences may be offered by logging onto www.salseranddillard.com.
