Aminuan was born July 8, 1931 in Brownsboro, Texas, the daughter of Floyd Daniel Saylors and Beulah Lawler Saylors. Aminuan was the baby of the family – the youngest of four children. She was preceded in death by her parents and sisters Arlis Saylors Hart, Chloe Saylors Tompkins and brother Floyd (Blue) Saylors, Jr.
Aminuan graduated from Brownsboro High School and Tyler Junior College. It was during her college years that she was introduced, by her brother Blue, to his friend and roommate at Sam Houston University, to John C. Webb. Aminuan and John were married June 24, 1950 and she moved with her new husband to Navasota, Texas and began her life as Aminuan Webb – fun loving and full of life.
Following her move to Navasota, Aminuan was at once active in all school activities, supporting her husband John C. Webb as football coach, principal, and later superintendent of schools. She also worked as bookkeeper for Grimes County Tax Office, the Navasota A.S.C. office and later Mid-South Electric Coop, from which she retired in 1987 after 27 years of service.
Aminuan was also active in the Navasota Garden Club, the Music Study Club, and the Grimes County Heritage Association. She will be remembered for her work in the Navasota First Baptist Church, where she served as a choir member for over 50 years. She served as a Sunday School teacher, Class President, Vacation Bible School teacher, Homebound Visitor, and on numerous other church committees. Aminuan will especially be remembered for her fun, entertaining personality whether playing bridge, hosting frequent dinner parties, or traveling the world.
