Libby was my mail carrier since I moved downtown. When she transfered routes I was at a loss. We managed to reconnect briefly during her illness. I enjoyed waiting for her delivery on days I was around. She always made me laugh and we had great fun teasing each other. A brief but fulfilling relationship between virtual strangers. Funny how just one person can make such an impact. I’m so sorry she is gone.

I have known Libby for years. She and Harvey Jr. rode my school bus. We also spent many days on the Little League field back in the day. I’ll be out of town and regret not being able to speak to all of you, but please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Libby’s smile and laugh were contagious to all. I will always cherish my memories of summers spent with Libby, doing all sorts of fun activities that cousins enjoy on summer break. I will miss her.
