Libby and I became very close friends over the years. We "met" on the old BDTonline forum, then "Hey Martha" and finally the Zone. We discovered that we didn't live all that far from each other, "just across the river" as she put it. We met for lunch a few times over the years and I immensely enjoyed her company. She was extremely, but quietly, intelligent and our conversations ran the gamut. She was a kind, beautiful person and I will always miss her.

No words man. 😭

The circle of life is approaching it apex for so many of us.

Appreciate you posting this Bo! And it is great to hear from you man! So thankful this place is still up and that some of the people I enjoyed in its heyday still drop by once in awhile to update us and check in.

Godspeed Libby! 😭

I always liked her.  She was nice.

Do you guys remember that time was almost 25 years ago?

It hadn't dawned on me that it was that long ago! Wow! I need to start paying more attention.

Sorry to hear this news. 

Libby always had a calming voice on these forums and was always a voice of reason. 

She asked me a few technical question regarding forum access over the years, and I was always glad to help her solve whatever problem she was facing. 

She will be missed.

We ought to have a thread about those old days.

And, Happy Birthday, Bo!

I'll be your age myself very soon.
