Not sure what to say?

Mr. Liebert was one of my favorite teachers at Grace School. I have so many memories from my years there. Foremost Mr. Liebert taught me that my faith walk is mine and doesn't happen through my parents or school. Facebook gave me the opportunity to reconnect in a small way to him. I thank God for his influence in my young life.

I spent many Saturday mornings at Grace Lutheran School attending confirmation class led by Mr. Liebert. He was very strict, but I do remember him being a jokester. He and Carole welcomed me into their home when I was home during vacation break from Concordia, Seward. Such a nice couple, I was blessed to know them.

One of my favorite Teachers. Always greeted me with "I´d rather be dead than red on the head". Aside from his jovial sayings he was a great teacher. Jared, Jay, and other family members my thoughts and prayers are with you. RIP Mr. Liebert BHS 1986-1990.

We were so blessed to know John and Carole ("Carol with an E") in Kennewick at Bethlehem Lutheran Church &School for these few years. Can´t tell you how many games of cribbage John beat Doug at. Til we all meet again!

Dear Jay, Noel, Jared, and families.........Where do I start with memories of John Liebert! The first time I met John, was way back in the late 60s. At that time, I was a registered member of Grace Lutheran Church. John was a young teacher/Principal at Grace Lutheran School. Part of John's ministry was to make personal calls to all members of the church with school aged children, with a house call. At that time I was a single Mom and no way could I consider a private/parochial education...

So sorry for your Family's loss. He was definitely an original . Enjoyed having him as a teacher.

Sorry for the passing of both John and Carole. Prayers for your entire family. John was the grandson of our Grandfather, Fred Liebert´s brother, Theodore Liebert. Our dad, Walter Liebert´s cousin. My brother, Marvin Liebert is also a resident of Brookdale @ Canyon Lakes. My niece Jeanette W.(Kennewick) enjoyed their visits @ B,CL.
