Obituaries for the week of February 4th

Clarence Leon Webster
Clarence “Sky” L. Webster, 79, of Oxford, passed away peacefully while surrounded by loved ones on January 27, 2026.
Born in Chester County on June 22, 1946, Clarence was the son of the late Clinton and Helen Webster. In 1965, he was drafted into the U.S. Army, and he proudly served his country during the Vietnam War. His service remained a significant source of pride throughout his life.
Clarence graduated from Oxford Area High School in 1965, and went on to build a remarkable 43-year career at Lincoln University. Known as a true “jack of all trades,” he contributed to the campus community as a grounds crewman, boiler plant operator, and events and programs setup coordinator. His dedication and reliability made him a cherished member of the Lincoln University family. After retiring, Clarence continued serving his community as a crossing guard and bus aide for the Oxford Area School District.
Clarence enjoyed simple pleasures—playing cards, spending time at Delaware Park for the horse races, and most of all, being surrounded by his loved ones. His presence brought warmth, humor, and comfort to everyone who knew him.
He leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories through his children: his son, Michael Webster of Oxford, and his daughters, Comea Webster of Newark, Del., Shavon Webster of Oxford, and Crystal Webster of Newark, Del. He is also survived by two grandsons, Sergio Lebron, Jr. of Newark, Del. and Xavier Webster of Oxford, two sisters, Patricia “Patty” A. Webster of Newark, Del. and Mary Webster of Oxford, along with a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends who will carry his memory forward.
Clarence was preceded in death by his longtime companion, Susie Boyer; two grandchildren, Joseph M. Williams and Michael Lebron; his sisters Helen J. Lee and Jean “Mikey” Webster; and his brothers Robert “Preach” Henderson, William “Billy” P. Henderson, Samuel “Sammy” L. Henderson, Eugene “Jo-Jo” Webster, and Guy Thomas Webster.
A Homegoing Service will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 7 at The Mary Dod Brown Memorial Chapel, 1570 Baltimore Pike, Lincoln University, Pa., where friends and family may visit from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.
Interment with military honors will be held in Union Hill Cemetery in Kennett Square.

Barbara Ann Hahn
Barbara Ann Hahn (formerly Reed), a resident of Nottingham, passed away peacefully while surrounded by her family on January 30, 2026.
Barb was born in Pottsville, Pa. on Nov. 19, 1948 to the late Blanche and Robert L. Reed.
She had a passion for gardening with her father, singing in her church choir with her mother and sister, and performing in the school plays.
She studied chemistry at Penn State University where she met the love of her life, the late W. Alan Hahn. The two married and moved to Oxford, where they raised three children and many poodles.
Barb continued to garden, keeping a beautiful landscape around her home. She ran her own aerobics business, Barb Hahn's Workout, and she enjoyed puzzles, games, books, crosswords, the Phillies, and movie nights.
Barbara's greatest joy was her family role as a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was a natural caregiver who selflessly opened her home to friends and loved ones in need throughout her entire life. She fostered an environment of love, humor, honesty, and gratitude.
She is survived by her three children, W. Alan Hahn, II (Shannon Ciarlone) of Nottingham, Alaina Jennings (Duane) of Nottingham and R. Michael Hahn (Melissa Paolercio) of Landenberg; eleven grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren; and a brother, Craig Reed.
Services will be private.
