Tobie Lee Liebert

Tobie Lee Liebert, April 5th, 1929 – June 7th, 2024

Tobie Lee Liebert was born in St Louis to Simon and Etta Londe. She was the youngest of six children, Ruth, Al, Eddie, Shirley and Annette. The family was joined by Cousin Betty. Tobie’s father passed away on her birthday when she was only 7 years old. Her mother raised the 6 children on her own during those difficult times.

When Tobie was only 15, she met Charles Liebert. She was smitten by him from the start. Chuck, who was the love of her life, provided her with a beautiful, happy marriage for 55 years. Tobie was a very involved mother to her three sons. She made every holiday special and fun, with Sabbath dinners on Friday nights and candied apples to hand out on Halloween. She was an excellent cook, taking French cooking lessons and serving gourmet meals to her family that they talk about to this day.

She and Chuck loved to entertain family and friends. Everyone gathered at their house, from pool parties to holiday events. They traveled the world. Her love of art and design led to her passion for interior decorating. Her ability to bring together beauty, style and comfort was admired by all who entered her home.

Tobie was a devoted wife, mother, sister, cousin, grandmother, great grandmother and aunt. She was very generous to her family and to many charitable organizations.

She is survived by her sons, Larry (Evelyn), Daniel and Robert (Jan). Grandchildren Willow Liebert, Adam Liebert, Rachel Hsu Liebert, Em Hsu Liebert and Eric Liebert. Great Grandchildren Kaeden Liebert, Braxton Liebert, Harper Peacock, Julian Charles Feinstein, Alexis Liebert and Henry Hsu Feinstein. She also had many nieces and nephews.
