She was born in Harnett County, the daughter of the late Harold “Billy” Parker and Jean Partin Parker.

Libby is survived by her daughter Diana Matthews Hall (Mark); 2 grandchildren, Matthew Jacob Hall and Marlo Elizabeth Hall; 2 sisters, Deborah Pruitt (Daniel), Celia Jones (Michael); brother, Bobby Partin (Carolyn); nieces and nephews; beloved walking companion, Samantha.
