Mary I am so sorry to hear of Cliff's passing. My thoughts and prays are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Mat & Phyllis Sorry for your loss You are in our thoughts & prayers

I never had the pleasure of meeting Rabbi Librach, but I got to see the impact and influence he had on his children Max and Giliah, who I know carry some of their fathers most memorable traits. Their determination and fierce loyalty, their kindness, work ethic, passion for making a real difference, their unwillingness to settle... these are things I know they learned from their Dad, and for that, I feel extremely grateful to know this wonderful family. To Max, Giliah, and the entire Librach...

On behalf of the Temple Emunah Bereavement Committee, I send condolences to you and your family on the loss of your beloved husband, Rabbi Clifford Librach. May the memory of Rabbi Librach be a blessing.

Rabbi Librach was one of the most intelligent and engaging people I ever met. I am sorry for your loss and pray that joyful memories of him will bring you comfort.

My condolences to Mariam, Gilia, Max and there families. I have fond memories of visiting Bloomington, IL to spend time with all of you before recommending that Temple Sinai of Sharon invite Cliff and family to join our community as it´s spiritual leader. He was a friend, a teacher and a leader. May his memory be a blessing to your family.

Very saddened to read of Rabbi Librach´s passing. My sincere sympathy to Mrs. Librach and family. I knew Rabbi Librach at United Jewish Center Danbury CT. My fondest memories were his Sunday seminars when he showed us his vast knowledge and intellect of Jewish lore, history and life in general. Of the Rabbis I knew at UJC, as a teacher he was by far the best.

Mrs. Librach, I was so sad seeing Rabbi Librach's obit in the Bloomington Pantagraph. I was the secretary at Moses Montefiore for 3 years and thoroughly enjoyed working with him. I admired and respected him very much. So sad to lose him at such a young age. My sympathies to you and your family.

So sorry to hear of Cliff´s passing. Our parents belonged to the same club in St. Louis when we were growing up- lots of fun and good memories. My condolences to the entire Librach family.
