George T. Webber, 50 passed away at home with the love of his life, Tina by his side with 30 years of a frickin awesome marriage.

Born in Pottsville, PA on April 9, 1968, he was the son of James and Louise Webber Jr.

George was a graduate of Pottsville Area High School, Class of 1986. He was skilled in many trades from welding to carpet installation. If his kids broke it he could fix it, Dad enjoyed working with his hands. A strong-willed, fearless and stubborn man he was, but to know and be a friend of his, you knew how much of an honor it was. Don't even think about touching his 68 Camaro, though he liked his car more than you. George enjoyed the outdoors in his Can-Am on poker runs with his family and gardening as a past time with his wife and grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his brother James Webber III and Grandmother Mary.

In addition to his wife Tina, George is survived by his children Justina Rollman and George Webber II, five grandchildren: Brik, Adra, Joseph "Joey", Gemma, and George III "Grump", and a brother Scott Webber.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Monday March 18th at 1PM at the Robert A Evans Jr Funeral Home 208 Pike St. Port Carbon.

Relatives and friends are invited to a viewing on Monday from 11AM-1PM at the Funeral Home
