Jeffrey Charles Webster

Jeffrey Charles Webster, age 74, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, August 24, 2024, in San Antonio, Texas. He was born on December 13, 1949, in Seattle, Washington to H. Charles and Jeannette Nelson Webster. In high school, he lettered in basketball and football and was a star player.

Jeff was a Vietnam War hero. He earned the Army Purple Heart, the Bronze Star for heroism, and the Silver Star for gallantry in action.

In 1988, Jeff moved to San Antonio for a professional position. Soon after, he met the love of his life, Janemarie Chapa, at her family’s restaurant, Teka Molino on San Pedro. They married in 1989 and a year later, their son, Charles Arthur Webster, was born. The family has enjoyed 34 years of togetherness and Jeff was a proud father and husband.

In 1995, Jeff received a Ph.D. with honors in health service management from LaSalle University, Mandeville, Louisiana. He had a lengthy career in the medical administration field. Among his professional accomplishments was starting a “Ski for All” program in Washington, teaching handicapped children to snow ski. While working at Riverton Hospital, Jeff also won a national award for his work with amputees. He was dedicated to ensuring the highest quality of patient care in all his professional positions until his retirement, where then he could focus on one of his true passions – fishing. Jeff spent years wade fishing in Port O’Conner. There, he and Janemarie hosted family and friends at their lovely second home and Jeff taught their visitors to fish and enjoy his hobby. He was a lifetime member of the Coastal Conservation Association. A later hobby that Jeff loved was building birdhouses for friends that were replicas of their own homes.

Jeff is survived by his wife, Janemarie Webster; his son, Charles Arthur Webster and fiancée, Madeline Kaye Martin; his sisters, Denise Webster Gero and Judi Webster Kuljis; his brother-in-law, Arthur Chapa; and numerous nieces and nephews.
