Kenneth Lybolt Obituary

Kenneth Craig Lybolt, 79, passed away unexpectedly on October 17th, 2025 at Corewell Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak with his loving family close by. He was born on November 5, 1945 in Midland to Kenneth W. and Berneice (Rearick) Lybolt.
Ken was a devoted Husband, loving Dad and proud Grandpa. He enjoyed sailing, skiing, golfing, and was a long-time member of the local Austin-Healey Club. You could always find him tinkering in his garage, doing yardwork, eating ice cream, or telling jokes to everyone he met. Ken loved helping others, whether it was his family, friends, neighbors, or strangers; he was there.
Ken was preceded in death by his cherished parents, Kenneth W. Lybolt and Berneice (Rearick) Lybolt; beloved in-laws, Russell and Joanna (DelliColli) Follick; and dear brother-in-law, Peter Gray. He is survived by his wife, Susan Lybolt; sister, Sondra Gray; children, Ashley (Steve) Wrobel and Tyler (Amy) Lybolt; and treasured grandson, Emry Zane. A celebration of his life will be held at a later date. Please share memories at www.sullivanfuneraldirectors.com/m/obituaries/kenneth-lybolt/memories
