William "Bill" Webb

My dear father, William "Billy" Bohman Webb, passed away on Thursday evening, July 27, 2017 in Holladay, Utah.  He was born January 20, 1930 in Monroe to Glyde and Christie Illene Morrison Webb.  He grew up loving his family, his friends and the beautiful valleys and mountains of Sevier County, Utah.
He moved to Provo, Utah in 1947, graduating from Provo High School as Valedictorian in 1948.  He married my mother, Beverly Joy Miller in 1952.
He graduated from Brigham Young University in 1954 in Advanced Studies and later graduated from the University of Utah, Marquette University and the University of Colorado, gaining masters degrees in business, finance and accounting.
He had a long and successful career in finance and banking, working as vice president of Peoples First Thrift of Utah, and later as CEO of Granite Furniture Employees Credit Union.  He retired in 2002.
He was very active in community and civic affairs, serving as president of Sugar House Chamber of Commerce, president of Sugar House Rotary Club, a board member of Salt Lake City Better Business Bureau, board member of Future Business Leaders of America and board member of Sugar House Development Commission, as well as several leadership and teaching assignments in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He was also a member of the State Boards of Officers’ Association for the Utah National Guard.  He was commissioned as an officer in the United States Air Force in 1954.  Retired as Lt. Colonel in the United States Air Force Reserve in 1977.  He graduated from Graduate Squadron Officer School, Command and Staff School and Air War College.  He served three consecutive years as a Utah Air National Guard Representative to the National War College in Washington, D.C.
He was very active in sports, loving to golf, play tennis, and snow and water skiing.  In essence, my father lived a full and enjoyable life.  His relationship with his family and friends was very dear to him.  He often said “without these precious relationships, my life would not have been as happy, complete and as perfect as it has.”
He is survived by his daughter, Charissa (Ken) Zima; granddaughters: Keegan Matta (Tate) and Riley Balling; and his special loving companion, Janice Marriott.  His loving daughter, Tenley Webb preceded him in death in 2009.
