Lib was my professional traveling "buddy" during the early days of Home Care. We went to many National Home Care meetings together. Lib was so much fun and usually had a relative or friend living wherever we went, whom we would visit. Lib was an outstanding leader in Home Care, Public Health, and Nursing. She loved her work. Our children were always a topic of conversation, and even though I never met Ken, Mike, or Greg, I felt like I knew you! Losing a Mother is very sad, so I send you my sincere sympathy. You will miss her.

Lib was my supervisor at the Guilford County Health Dept (G'boro) and I so admired her professionalism and wisdom. She started me onto a wonderful career in Public Health. I am sorry to hear of her death. I remember how proud she was of her sons.
