So sorry to see this Lynn. Sounds like she had a great life, but it’s still tough.

So sorry Lynn. Never easy to loose a parent.
Love & prayers coming your way.
Dear Lynne and family. Gloria and Dick were the very first people we met in 1958 when we moved into a house on 8th Avenue in LaGrange, right across the street from the Leibers. Gloria and Jackie were active together in the Catholic Women’s Club at St. Francis Xavier Church. They each had several younger children, and lots of interests in common. Steve, the oldest of the Leiber kids, taught ours how to play cards for nickels and dimes. Lynne was a sometime baby sitter. Rick and Kurt came along later. In fact, I remember the time I was called in the middle of the night and asked to come over and watch the Leiber children, because Gloria was off to the hospital to deliver Kurt. They were and are a wonderful family and we s owe so much to them. God bless you Gloria, our dear friend for 65 years. Jackie & Tom MOrsch
