What a heartprint Dr Leiber has left for us. As a teacher,mentor, neighbor and friend, Dr Leiber taught us the things that were not in the textbooks. He always addressed one by name and with a smile. Will miss him and hope to follow his example.

A mentor, colleague and friend, he was always kind, helpful and good-humored. His was a commitment to his position on the faculty of the University of Kentucky Medical College outlasted all but a very few. He carried the arduous task of chairing the admissions committee for many years, giving up countless hours of his free time. He will be remembered and missed by a great many people.
