Aaron Webb
With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Aaron Michael Webb, 41, of New Lexington, Ohio.
Aaron was a beloved husband, father, son, brother and friend whose steady presence touched the lives of everyone that knew him. Born on February 27, 1985, Aaron grew up in New Lexington, Ohio where he created a loving home on the family farm that his family will forever cherish.
Aaron and Kelly had an unbreakable bond that was seen every day in the love that they shared. He built his life around his family, always present in the moments that mattered most. Whether it was fishing with Case or heading into the woods on a hunting trip, he used that time not just to share an activity, but to pass down patience, skill, and quiet wisdom. He was Zella’s biggest fan, always encouraging her love of animals and art. She was a daddy’s girl to the core. He never hesitated to step in as coach for both kids, always encouraging them to do their best. He was the kind of father who showed up for everything his family needed. At home, he also found joy in the everyday routines, especially cooking dinner for his family and helping them with whatever project they were working on.
Aaron dedicated his life to protecting others, serving as a firefighter-paramedic with courage, skill and unwavering compassion. He answered every call with a steady heart and selfless spirit. In the firehouse, he not only found a brotherhood but a second family with a loyalty and an unspoken bond that will endure far beyond his years. To those he served, Aaron was a hero, to those who knew him, he was so much more – a devoted husband, father and friend.
Aaron proudly served his community for nearly 20 years. In that time, he accomplished many outstanding awards and honors including Esprit de Corp in 2019, Firefighter of the Year in 2024, multiple Life Saving Awards, and recently passing the exam to be promoted to Lieutenant in July of this year.
