Mr. Webb was born in Phenix City, son of the late George Paul and Margaret Webb. He attended Central High school and graduated in 1956. Mr. Webb was a proud Veteran of the Alabama National Guard and was activated to serve during the Berlin Crisis. During his working career, Charles only has three different jobs his entire working life, he began at Bickerstaff Clay Products, then moved to Dudley Lumber Company in Salem, Alabama and then finally opening his own contracting firm where he ed continuously for the past 50 years. In 1971, Charles and Miriam, opened Charles E. Webb Contracting Company, and began to serve as contractors in the Chattahoochee Valley area. Although starting as a residential contractor, they quickly transitioned to commercial general contracting. For the next 20 years, the two of them ran the business as a sole proprietors, Mr. Webb handling the field and Mrs. Webb handling the office. In 1991, two of Mr. Webb’s sons joined the business and they renamed the company Webb Construction Group, Inc.
Aside from being a great business man, the most important thing was that he was a great husband to his wife Miriam of 61 years. He was a loving father, grandfather, great grandfather, and friend to many. The most important thing in his life was his relationship with Jesus. Those who knew him, knew the kind of man he was and the positive impact he had on so many lives. He was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed farming, hunting, and fishing.
He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Miriam Dudley Webb of Phenix City; three sons, Alan Webb and wife Leslie of Monroeville, Al, Phil Webb and wife Dodie of Cataula, Ga, and Stuart Webb and wife Misty of Midland, Ga.

Along with 9 grandchildren, he has 5 great grandchildren and another 3 to be born in 2021. As you can see, he was a blessed man and his legacy will live on in the life of his family.

Bryan Walters (Fat Boy) says
Mr. Webb was one of very few men, that within an hour after you met him, you knew his convictions, his passions, and his love for his family and Jesus Christ. He had a profound impact on my life, from the day we met. Even though I was 500 miles away from him in Jonesboro, Arkansas, we have had some long distance prayers together. When I opened my business, he told me how proud he was of me, and if I would just always remember, the business should always come third in my life, after GOD, and FAMILY. I took it to heart!
It’s good thing I didn’t live closer to him, because we both love to hunt, and that Ole Fellar could walk a young man into the ground while hunting quail. I will NEVER forget one time we were hunting and he got to looking for one of his dogs. He said “Fat Boy, do you see that other dog?” I said “Yes sir, he’s tangled up with an armadillo.” He said, “Well shoot him, I didn’t train no dog to hunt armadillos.” I said which one, the dog or the armadillo? He just started laughing. Mr. Webb will be missed so much. My thoughts and prayers are with the family, as they have always been. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
Alan & Bonnie McPherson says
Mrs. Miriam and Webb Family, please know that we are with you in prayer during this difficult time. Mr Charles was a very kind gentleman and a true friend. He had a light inside him and that light shined in everything he said and did. May God surround you with his loving presence, fill you with His peace, and go before you in the days ahead. All of Heaven is celebrating Mr. Charles homecoming. We will see him again one day.
Chris and Renee Montgomery says
You are all in our prayers.
I don’t know what to say.
I loved that every time I saw Mr. Charles he would smile so big and say “come here boy.”
I will miss that smile.
Please give miss Miriam a hug from me.
Tony Knight says
