Obituary

Kristina Webb passed away on January 13, 2026, at the age of 43, following a four-year battle with a recurrence of brain cancer. She first faced cancer in 2012 and, with remarkable strength, went on to live nine cancer-free years before its return in 2021.

Kristina Jobe was born on March 25, 1982, in Beaver, Pennsylvania, to Kenneth and Barbara Jobe. From an early age, she was deeply rooted in her faith and remained a devoted churchgoer throughout her life. In high school, she found joy and belonging in marching band and color guard, passions that reflected her creativity, discipline, and love of teamwork.

Kristina pursued higher education with a focus on becoming an educator. She spent years substitute teaching and leading classrooms across multiple high schools, while also instructing high school color guard. Teaching was never just a job for her. It was an extension of her instinct to guide, encourage, and lift others.

In 2011, Kristina married Eryck Webb in East Liverpool, Ohio, and together they made their home in Midland, Pennsylvania. Their life was full of shared adventures, quiet devotion, and deep partnership.

Kristina poured her care outward. She cherished her many beloved dogs over the years, including Wally, Joe, Chico, and Frankie. She cared for her niece, nephews, cousins, and friends’ children as if they were her own, always offering patience, attention, and warmth. She took great pride in caring for her mother, helping extended family members manage medical needs, and checking in on neighbors. She also managed the financial side of Eryck’s art business, bringing order, steadiness, and support behind the scenes.

Kristina and Eryck loved exploring state parks with their dogs and traveling together across the country. Along the way, Kristina delighted in collecting shot glasses and refrigerator magnets. She dipped her toes in the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, two of the Great Lakes, and the Colorado River at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, a small but joyful tradition that reflected her curiosity and sense of wonder.

Despite enduring immense physical pain and uncertainty throughout her illness, Kristina consistently focused on lifting others. She was known for her kindness and her steady optimism and humor. She had a joke ready for every member of her medical team and never lost her ability to laugh, even in the hardest moments. Her courage was quiet but unwavering, marked by grace, generosity, and an unshakable concern for those around her.

Kristina Webb is survived by her husband, Eryck; her sister, Kendra; her parents, Bobbie and Kenny; her niece, Grace; her nephews, John and Theo; and her beloved dog, Frankie.

Kristina was an avid reader, and libraries meant a lot to her. She encourages everyone, instead of sending flowers, to send a donation to your local library. Thank you.
