Jeffery Scott Webb

Jeffery “Scott” Webb, 55, passed away on Thursday, May 14, 2026.

A native of Marion, NC, Scott was the son of James Andrew Webb and the late Mildred Louise Allison Webb.

Scott was someone you didn’t forget once you knew him. He had a sharp intelligence, a dry sense of humor that could catch you off guard, and a personality that revealed itself gradually, but those who had the chance to get to know him discovered someone thoughtful, dedicated, selfless, kind, and quietly caring. Scott was a voracious reader from a young age, enjoying everything from classic literature to comic books. His love of storytelling led him to begin writing at an early age, a passion he continued throughout his life. He published several stories and was recognized for his talent by winning several writing contests.

In addition to his father, he is survived by his partner, Scott Case; aunts, Diane Allison and Mary Allison; and his cousins, Travis Webb, Allen Webb, Chrystal Webb, Missy Webb, and Leslie Webb. He was preceded in death by his sister, Sharon Lynn Webb.

His friends and family will gather to celebrate Scott’s life on Tuesday, May 26, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Groce Funeral Home on Patton Avenue in Asheville, N.C.
