Joseph “Clyde” Dodson, 81, of Webster Springs, passed away on Sunday, November 16, 2025, under the compassionate care of Webster Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Cowen.

Clyde was born in Webster Springs on June 12, 1944, a son of the late Beecher Dodson and Blanche Roberts Dodson.

Clyde was employed for several years with Martin Sanitation, where his dedication and hard work were highly valued.

Clyde’s love for hunting was not only a hobby, but a lifestyle. He spent his lifetime making dear friends with his hunting buddies. Clyde was an avid gun and knife trader throughout his life and was known in the community for his extensive collection of guns and knives.

In addition to his parents, Clyde was preceded in death by three sisters: Mary Helen Myers and husband, Owen, Anna Mae Cogar and husband, Clifford, Charlotte Waybright and husband, Jerry; and two nephews: Owen “Tim” Myers and Justin Owen Myers.

Forever cherishing their memories of Clyde are his longtime companion, Barb Eubank; one brother, Larry Dodson and wife, Helen, of Webster Springs; seven nieces and nephews: Ginger, Marie, Teresa, Kim, Charlene, Travis, and Nicholas; niece and caregiver: Linda Myers Tenney and husband, Joseph, of Webster Springs; and although he had no children of his own, he acted as grandfather to his great-nephews: Brogan, Kash, Knox, and Baylor. As a grandparent, Clyde shared his wisdom of hunting and trading with his great-nephews teaching them to use their skills just as he did. Their special relationship will be treasured forever.

A Visitation will be held at Dodd & Reed Funeral Home located at 155 McGraw Ave. in Webster Springs from 5-7 p.m. on Wednesday, November 19, 2025. Following visitation, Clyde’s request for Cremation will be honored.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his stepmother, Wilma Bell Waybright; brothers: Gerald “Jerry” Waybright and James “Jim” Waybright; Sister Rose Marie Young; step-sister Genice Bell Milliner; and sister-in-law Charlotte Dodson Waybright.
