Thomas Liebe Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 9, 2025.
Thomas Robert "Tom" Liebe, 71, passed away on January 31, 2025, in West Allis, Wisconsin. He was born on February 11, 1953, in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, to Robert and Helen Liebe.

Tom was a man who found joy in the simple pleasures of life. He had a passion for ham radio, spending countless hours connecting with others over the airwaves. He also enjoyed friendly competition in pool, darts, and bowling, always bringing his signature humor to every game. Fishing provided him with moments of peace and reflection, whether alone or with loved ones by his side.

Above all else, Tom was known for his infectious sense of humor. He had a knack for being the biggest joker in every room, bringing laughter and lightheartedness wherever he went. His presence will be deeply missed by those who knew him.

Tom is survived by his children: Joseph Pertle; Gail Sancinati and her fiancé Mark LaRow; John "JJ" Sancinati; and Steven Sancinati. He also leaves behind his cherished grandchildren: Todd and his wife Kaylynn; John; Katlyn; James; Madison; Steven Jr.; and Kaydence. His great-grandchildren Jasper, Serenity, Michael "MJ," and Abigail will grow up hearing stories of his warmth and humor. In addition to his immediate family, Tom is remembered by many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends.

He was preceded in death by his beloved wife Deborah Liebe-the love of his life-his parents Robert and Helen Liebe, his siblings Diane, Sandy, and Penny, as well as his grandson Zachary.

Tom's memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him. May the laughter he shared continue to bring comfort to all who knew him.
