From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roy L. Webber (November 7, 1904–October 1975)[1][2] was the mayor of the U.S. city of Roanoke, Virginia from 1968 to 1975.

Webber was a florist and the business he established in Roanoke still carries his name. U.S. Route 220 from the end of Interstate 581 at State Route 24 (Elm Avenue) through the road's interchange with State Route 419 was named the Roy L. Webber Expressway in his honor.
