Audrey was born June 25, 1936, the daughter of Cecil and Mina (Jenkins) Hill at Mercy Hospital in Mason City. She was presented a challenging childhood after her mother passed shortly after giving birth. Audrey was then raised by her aunt and uncle, George and Hazel Hill. At the age of 12, she lost her father, Cecil.

Audrey grew up in the Manly area attending Lime Creek #3 country school and graduating from Manly High School. She later attended La James Beauty School and Mason City Junior College, prior to marrying Harold Webb on Sept. 7, 1956. He preceded her in death on Oct. 24, 1994.

Audrey’s world was her family. She took great pride in supporting Harold’s career while raising her sons, Hugh and Gregory. After briefly living in Cedar Falls, she and Harold lived in Hampton from 1958-1974, before moving to Clear Lake. She worked at the Lake Café, Clear Lake Schools and Clear Lake United Methodist Church.

Audrey was a member of Wesley United Methodist Church, accepting Christ in her life at the age of 12 at the E.U.B. church in Manly. For many years she enjoyed gardening, cooking, being festive for every holiday and special events, and remaining active in her sons’ lives. Audrey especially enjoyed visiting with her five grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.

Audrey is survived by her children, Hugh (Marie) Webb, of Clear Lake, and Gregory Webb, of Iowa Falls; grandchildren, Briana (Joey) Knudtson, Houston (Jocelyn) Webb, Harrison (Jordan) Webb, Blake (Ashley) Webb and Brooke Webb; great-grandchildren, Parker, Paxton, Jaylyn, Hudson, Hayden, Hazel, Nola, Zane and Elijah; brother, David (Bev) Hill, of Mason City; and sister-in-law, Delores Mullin, of Springview, Neb.
