George O. Webster Jr. of Geneva, AL passed away peacefully at his home on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. He was 78. 

 A graveside service will be held at 2:00 pm on Saturday, November 14, 2026 at Gulley Springs Baptist Church Cemetery in Bonifay, FL with Rev. Jeffrey Amerson officiating  and Warren Holloway Ward Funeral Home directing. 

George was born in Holmes County, Florida on December 28, 1947, to the late John and Katie Marie Dickerson Amerson. He had a special appreciation for classic and vintage automobiles and always enjoyed attending Hot Rod car shows and being a member of the River Junction Cruisers Car Club.  George spent much of his life doing what he loved most—traveling the open road. He dedicated 25 years to driving for Ward Trucking before continuing his career as an independent contractor for another eight years. George truly loved being behind the wheel, and the trucking industry was more than just a career to him; it was a way of life. His love for the road and the many miles he traveled were a big part of who he was. 

He is preceded in death by his parents; son, George Coby Webster; sister, Jeanette Harcus; nephew, Kevin Amerson.

George is survived by his loving wife of almost 60 years, Marietta Bess Webster; three siblings, Linda Jernigan, Pat Amerson (Fran), and Hurtis Amerson; two nieces, Kim Drummond (Dan) and their children, Shannon Dowlin (Sam) and their children; nephew, Jeffrey Amerson (Taylor); niece-in-law, Tonya Amerson and her children; and their fur baby, Pebbles the kitty.
