Not sure what to say?

The day my family moved into our new house in Bryan in 1970, my brother and I were sent down the street to the Limbacher's house where we were graciously welcomed by Phil and Jewel, and Laurie and Bobby spent the day playing with us and keeping us occupied. I will always have fond memories of the Limbachers as neighbors and of Laurie as a babysitter. I am so sorry for your loss.

I certainly remember the good times we shared on Briar Oaks. I have thought of the family often in the past years.Know that my prayers are with you. Fondly, Loretta Rouse

Jewel and Laurie,

Don't know if you remember us as it has been so many years ago when you lived on Briar Oaks in Bryan, but we lived down the street on Oark Ridge, across from the Pages.
We have thought of you often over the years and still call your house, "the Limbacher's home". Laurie, I think maybe you babysat with our kids, Julie, Jan and Ricky. I have recently reunited with Nancy Sellstrom, your across-the-street neighbor.

Our thoughts are with you during...

He was my professor and mentor in the 70's and had a great impact on my career as an educator. My condolences to the family.

Phil and I both had to privilege of knowing Professor Kenneth Henderson at U of I, and it was through that connection that I became aware of the faculty vacancy at TAMU which I came to fill. Phil was a great professional friend and I can truly say that I have missed my contacts with him since I retired and moved away from BCS. My life was truly richer for having known and worked with him.

To Jewel, Laurie, Bobby I send my sympathy on your loss.

I had the privilege to work for Dr. Limbacher in the mid '70's as a graduate student in the College of Education. He truly touched my life and shared his great wisdom of how to work with people and make important decisions. What he instilled in me impacted the students I later worked with. All of the thank you cards I received over the years from parents and students were a direct result of what he taught me. My life and the lives of many others were changed because of him. Thank you.

To express our deep sympathy to you on your loss. We thank Dr. Limbacher for serving our country in the U.S. Army Air Corps during WW II & retiring from the U.S. Air Force as a LTC & then completing his Doctorate in Education.
You were a member of "the greatest generation". We thank you for your work with the Aggies in the field of Education. May God's Speed Be With You Airman.
