I knew Libby when she was interning at what was then called the College of Notre Dame. She was terrific in her work and full of life in connecting with people around her. I am so sorry for your loss, Ray. My condolences to all of you.

So sorry to hear this. Years ago I would see Libby on the beach at 122nd street. We have a place right next door to hers. I was always looking for her every time we were there. Such a wonderful person

Libby was 14. I was 16. We met at 9th St and Baltimore Ave in Ocean City. From that time until the present, we created many memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life. The parties in Highlandtown and Catonsville in our early years to the evening that Colleen and I spent with Libby and Ray last year will never be forgotten. Ray, please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
