Obituary of Stephen Scott Webber
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Stephen Scott Webber, who peacefully entered into rest on April 29, 2026, at the age of 66, following a courageous battle with cancer.
Born in Chatham on April 25, 1960, Stephen was the beloved son of Harold Vernon Webber and Barbara Ann Webber (nee Godfree). He was the cherished husband and best friend of Heather Webber, with whom he shared a lifetime of love and companionship.
Stephen was a dedicated father who took immense pride in his children: Matthew (Adeline), Kyle (Angie), Colin Stoliker (Brittany), Bryce Stoliker, and Tye Stoliker (Shauna). He was the adored “Grandpa” to Emery, Lily, Abigail, Layla, Wes, Hudson and Oakley, each of whom brought a special spark to his life. He will be deeply missed by his brothers, Doug (Lori) and Paul (Beth), as well as his extended family and many dear friends.
A man of integrity and service, Stephen began his career with the Chatham-Kent Police Service in 1983. For 35 years, he served his community with honor and dedication until his official retirement in 2018.
Outside of his uniform, Stephen was a man of many passions. He was a true music enthusiast, often found tinkering with or hunting for vintage stereo equipment to find that perfect sound. On game days, he was a steadfast supporter of his favourite teams, cheering loudly for the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Detroit Lions, and the Michigan Wolverines. Some of his happiest moments were spent in the quiet of the outdoors, enjoying the simplicity of camping and the community at his trailer.
Stephen’s legacy of service, his love for a good vintage record, and his unwavering devotion to his family will never be forgotten.
At Stephen’s request, no funeral service will take place; but rather an open family and friends gathering to celebrate his life at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Badder Funeral Home & Reception Centre, Dresden.
In lieu of flowers a donation can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of your choice would be appreciated by the family.
