Elizabeth
"Libby" Ann (LaBarre) Osborne, daughter of Nester and Glada LaBarre,
passed away in her home early Monday morning. She was 75 years old. She
rejoined her beloved husband of 50 years, William Derrol Osborne, who passed
away four years prior. She is survived by her sons, Jon and Jeffrey Osborne;
grandchildren, Rachael Kingery and Austin Osborne; great-granddaughter, Addison
Kingery; brother, Richard LaBarre; and many nieces and nephews. Libby's fire
burned bright and she is remembered for her warmth, outgoing nature and love of
life. She earned her Bachelors of Science in Education from Ohio University and
was a kindergarten teacher at Germantown Elementary in the early 1970's. For 12
years she owned and managed Salsa's Mexican Restaurant in Blue Ash, where she
never met a stranger. Libby also enjoyed golf, tennis, antique collecting and volunteering
for various charities. She was a busy and hardworking wife, mother and a friend
to all. A private interment will be held in her birthplace of Marietta, Ohio.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to Shriners Hospital, 3229 Burnet
Ave, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229. Alexandria Funeral Home is serving the family.
Dick, Sorry to here of Lib's passing. BOb& Armelda.
ReplyDeleteMiss you Mom!!
ReplyDeleteI have such fun memories of Aunt Libby. I will miss her terribly at our annual Marietta December gathering. Our prayers go out to Jon and Jeff as they grieve the passing of their mother and to Uncle Dick at the loss of his sister.
