Not sure what to say?

Dr Libke was my dentist growing up. I remember him as a friendly and caring man.

Norma, so sorry for your loss.I have so many fond memories of our hunting trips and Nevada games with Joe and Bill Paris, I miss them. Jim Talbott

Norma, Sue and I are sorry to read of Joe. He was such a great person to UNR and the dental society. I will miss my association with him on many fronts. Please take care of your self.

My dad, Tom Batey grew up with Dr. Libke in Sullivan, Indiana, and ended up in Reno with Joe and Scott. Dad always talked of the fun the three of them had growing up and all the trouble they got in to. His childhood in Indiana was not easy, but his two friends sure made it better. So sorry to hear of his passing. My love and prayers go out to your family. M'Chel Batey

Mrs. Libke, Jane, and Jeneane,
Loved Dr. Libke! Always had a big smile and never a painful experience to go to the DDS. Always interested in how I was doing and my family. A special friend to my dad too. My thoughts are with you.

I saw Dr. Libke at his office on Moana throughout my childhood. Going to see the dentist wasn't so bad when you were lucky enough to have him as your dentist. He was always very kind, professional & straightforward--explained what was going on...and when it came time to get my braces, he walked me through that and he sent me next door to Dr. Archer (my teeth are still straight today, 35 years on). I was sorry to read of his passing, your family has my condolences.

Dear Norma and family, I would like to extend to you my sincere condolences. My family, the LaFonds, and yours had many wonderful times together. Dad and Joe had many a hunting and fishing trip together with many stories to tell. I have a lot of pictures of their outings that I found at the LaFond home. Please know that Joe is now watching over you and will keep you all safe. I am truly sorry for your loss. Edie LaFond Holmes

Great person, will be missed,RIP Joe.
