The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Amid laughter and song, Leonard (known as "Old Fart," to all that knew and loved him) went home Friday March 23, 2012. Born in Erickson, Nebraska, August 5, 1930 to Bruce and Hazel Libby. In his teenage years he was taken in and loved by Jerry and Helen Arrants, his best friends family. An electrician by trade from Yakima, Washington, he retired to Prescott, Washington in 1992/93. He loved fishing, wood working and being with family and friends.

Leonard is survived by three sisters, Winnie, Arvella, and Karen, and three brothers, Larry, David and Curtis. He is also survived by two daughters, Sharon and Theresa, three sons, Daniel, Bruce and Delbert as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. One son, Robert, has gone before him.

The celebration of his life is held daily in our hearts.

A private service will be held at a later date.

Happy fishing Papa Libby!
