Roy Webb No Longer With Ernie Haase and Signature Sound


Add this entry to Your Favorites | [0] Favorites [15] Comments

According to a newsletter sent out today from Ernie Haase and Signaturre Sound, Roy Webb will no longer be playing piano for the group. It has recently been reported that Roy Webb had to attend to some urgent family needs concerning his estranged father.

The following message was left by Ernie on the Signature Sound Message Boards:
Michael,

An on going bad situation worsened this weekend..... Roy's estranged father has been fighting cancer and is right at deaths door. Roy said it is very VERY bad! In the light of the situation and the fact that there are years and years of "issues" between them that need to somehow come to a close "Real Fast" He (Roy) felt the right thing to do was come off the road and "Deal" with these "Real Issues" of life, death, family and healing.

All the guys and the families of EHSS support Him and request prayer for Roy and his family as they wade through these uncharted waters.

Elaine Harcourt's avatar My heart goes out to Roy & my prayers are with him. May God give him the wisdom & direction to deal with these issues. My prayers are with SSQ, too, as they seek to find another pianist.

God is good all the time & all the time God is good.

Roy Webb will most certainly be missed. He was an very integral and enjoyable part of EH&SS;

Roy will definitely be missed, although I am thankful to know that his priorities are proof that he is a true Christian gentleman... We love you, Roy! God bless the rest of Sig Sound with Ernie as you all find someone to fill his shoes - and his piano bench!
Hope to see you all again soon in this SW Missouri area!

Is it possible Roy will be back at some point? I don't want to see him gone forever from the group.

Roy definitely will be missed. I loved his humor and sweet nature. I know what it's like to have an estranged father and the personal questions that need to be answered. Pain is very real and I'm happy that Roy has the courage to do what I never had the opportunity to. God Bless you Roy. We hope to hear how you're doing soon.

May God continue to bless Roy Webb. I'm personally grateful for his talent on the piano, his wit, his sacrifice in service and his friendship with the guys from SSQ.

Roy will be missed by all of us. I honor his difficult decision.

Roy's humor brought laughter to my weary soul and his music brought healing to my weary heart. See you again, my friend. You are in my prayers.

Remembering that God is STILL God,

Just want to say that I saw Signature Sound last night in Peoria Illinois. Have enjoyed them for a long time, and while I sorely missed seeing Roy, it was a very smooth transition. One of the good things is that the rest of the quartet are taking a more active part in the dialogue. I appreciated Ernie's tact in his handling of what had to have been a difficult situation. Kudos to you Ernie, Ryan, Doug and Tim.

We are sad to see that Roy is no longer with EEHSS but one thing I know "God's Word is true" Honor thy father & mother for this is the first commandment with promise." Long life is that promise.
When things get back to normal again maybe we'll see Roy with them again. Until then we'll hold him up in prayer. God bless you Roy.

I was very sad and I even cried when I've read that Roy "will no longer be the piano player for EHSS". I was totally shocked when I read the email from Ernie. I'm praying for Roy every day since that moment. After the problems are over, I would like to see Roy back in the group. They are not a real "team" without him! God bless you, Roy!

I WOULD HAVE HOPED THAT ROY'S RESIGNATION WAS NOT ACCEPTED, COULD THE GROUP HAVE ALLOWED A TEMPORARY "FAMILY EMERGENCY" LEAVE....

THE PENDING DEATH OF ROY'S FATHER A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE DEATH OF HIS BELOVED GRANDMOTHER MUST BE VERY VERY HARD TO TAKE.

I HOPE HE REJOINS THE GROUP IN A FEW MONTHS.

I LOVE ROY AND THE ENTIRE WEBB AND GIBBS FAMILIES.

MY PRAYERS ARE WITH THEM.
