Mrs. Elizabeth “Lib” Roberts Morris, 86, of Bladenboro went home to be with the Lord on Friday, December 8, 2023 while at Elizabethtown Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.

Mrs. Lib was a dedicated educator for more than 30 years. She taught home economic and elementary school. She holds a special place in the hearts of many of her students. For many years, Mrs. Lib taught Sunday school and lead the children's music at Bethel Baptist Church. She cherished time with her family, traveling, and spending time at the family beach cottage. After her retirement, Mrs. Lib could often be found reading stories and singing songs with children visiting the family pumpkin patch and greeting friends and customers during strawberry season. She received so much joy from her fur babies, "Baby doll" and "Mollie Mae" and her cats.

 

The family will receive friends from 1-2:15 pm on Monday, December 11, 2023 at the Bethel Baptist Church in Dublin followed by a funeral service at 2:30 pm with Dr. Mack Roberts and the Reverend Darryl Hester officiating. Burial will follow the services in the Roberts Family Cemetery.
