08/18/2026

Russell Martin Webb-criminal defense attorney, world-record skydiver, photographer, filmmaker, cat trainer, relentless tinkerer, father, brother, and a man who never encountered a toilet that couldn't be improved with a bidet-was finally slowed down & stopped on August 12, 2026, in Amarillo, TX. It was a 19-month battle with glioblastoma. He was 75.

Born November 25, 1950, in Corpus Christi, Texas, to Rebecca Martin and Thomas Powers Webb. The oldest of four, he spent much of his childhood in Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia; later attending Allen Military Academy, El Paso Burges High School, Sam Houston State University, and earning his law degree from Texas Southern University. He passed the bar on his first try, but we're more impressed that he sat in a chair long enough to do so.

Russell was a 10 year old boy who dreamed of having his own science lab...and later became
a 70 year old man who lived in one. His bedroom was a computer lab, darkroom, workshop,
hardware store, legal archive, and equipment storage facility all at once. He was endlessly
fascinated by photography, filmmaking, time-lapse photography, computers, tools, science,
cameras, microscopes, and anything that could be investigated, modified, recorded, dismantled,
magnified, or plugged into something. He left behind a dozen Craftsman cabinets full of tools,
zip ties, razor blades, electrical cords, and anything else a 10 year old boy might dream of
owning in excess. A room so full that the bed was shoved in a corner, wedged between filing
cabinets and mini fridges. The walls covered in decades worth of his own photos that had been
developed and printed at home; ranging from grisly car wrecks to "local models".

He spent years working for the Texas Department of Corrections and as a parole officer before
becoming a defense attorney and helping people from that side. He was passionate about your
individual rights and took pride in getting clients out of jail. For years, he also served informally
as photographer for the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association Christmas Party.

Apparently, even a room full of defense attorneys needed photographic evidence of what happened.

Russell was a collector. If he needed 1 thing, he'd buy 100. This wasn't limited to objects,
though, and included people. He never burned a bridge. He kept in touch with old friends,
classmates, colleagues, ex-girlfriends, and even women he'd met while online dating. He found
great joy in pulling up a photo he'd taken of someone when they were a kid, tracking them down across the country, and making them recreate the same pose as a senior citizen; the sort of thing that's more endearing posthumously than in the moment.

He loved a road trip and would use an eclipse or skydiving boogie as the perfect excuse to
recreate those moments. His final log book showed 5,116 jumps and those adventures took him around the world, including a jump over the pyramids of Egypt. From 2000 to 2010, he was a
tandem instructor examiner at Skydive Houston. At age 60, he broke a world record as part of
Skydivers Over Sixty in Lake Elsinore, California. When he drove to Wyoming in 2017 for the
solar eclipse, he brought nine cameras. His 2007 Ford Freestar minivan - featuring a 6' long
half-naked mermaid on one side - had three GoPros mounted to it because America didn't
enough footage of its interstates.

Russell loved making videos and dreamed of going viral. He frequently demanded that family
members, waitresses, and anyone who'd listen subscribe to his YouTube channel and tell all
their friends. His fascination didn't end there, though, as he once announced that he'd watched
every cat video there was. Most people accept that as the end of the internet. Russell saw a
content gap. He trained his cat to yawn on command and then took close to 800 daily
photographs of it. He knew this would be the break he was waiting for.

It wasn't.

He started luring wild raccoons into his townhome with the promise of hot dogs and attempting
to train them. He would leave food outside for timelapse videos of ants... or installing new
hardwood floors in his rental units. (Intentionally plural.) Russell remodeled rented apartments
with the confidence of a man who considered a lease a list of suggestions as opposed to a
binding contract. He acquired enough Ryobi power tools to open his own hardware store. He
put casters on every piece of furniture so he could rearrange his place at a moment's notice.

Russell was also the world's greatest advocate for bidets. Every toilet needed one. Even hotels.
Somewhere there is a hotel maintenance worker who has questions that will never be
answered.

Russell committed intensely to anything that interested him. In his final weeks, this included
eating Church's Chicken for 45 days straight. Through his life, he survived a heart attack,
melanoma, and crashing into a parachute that was opened beneath him. He frequently boasted
how he'd never broken a bone while skydiving. (What actually broke both his arms was trying to
impress a girl by pole-vaulting with two sticks.) There's some irony that the thing that finally took
him down was something like brain cancer and not something more directly related to his
chaotic lifestyle.

Those who knew Russell are invited to remember him not simply for how his life ended, but for
the extraordinarily curious, unconventional, and comical way he lived it. There is also one final
piece of unfinished business. Russell spent years sharing his content with others. It seems
appropriate to honor that one more time.

Ronnie later made Snyder, Texas, his home, where he graduated from Snyder High School in 1964. He went on to attend Texas Tech University, earning his degree in Accounting.

Throughout his working years, Ronnie built a career in accounting and business. He worked for Brunken Toyota, Greyhound, the oilfield, and Anderson & Anderson. It was during his time at Greyhound that Ronnie met the love of his life, Bertha Ann Montalvo. The two were married on April 11, 1970, in Crosbyton, Texas, and shared more than 56 years of marriage together. Ronnie later retired from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

Ronnie was also deeply committed to his community and to the education of local children. He served on the Snyder Independent School District Board of Trustees from 2008 until 2021. During his time on the board, he served as Secretary from 2014-2015 and President from 2015-2016. His years of service reflected his dedication to Snyder and his desire to make a positive difference in the community.

Ronnie was a man who enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. He had a passion for hot rod cars, farming, and sports. He especially enjoyed a good cheeseburger, strawberry milkshake, Root Beer, watermelon, popcorn, ginger snaps, and chewing gum. His interests and the things he enjoyed brought him many happy moments throughout his life.

Ronnie was preceded in death by his parents, Buster and Ronda Anderson.

He leaves behind his beloved wife, Bertha Anderson of Longview, Texas; his son, Roger Anderson and wife Susan of Arlington, Texas; his daughter, Michele Menges and husband Eric of Longview, Texas; and his brother, Larry Anderson and wife Bobbie of Choudrant, Louisiana.
