LIBBY ROSE ZIVOT (KLADY)

Condolences & Memories (6 entries)

• Shocked to learn of this death since we were peers.... saddened by the news of her cancer and ensuing demise. She was a kind friend where I was the new awkward girl at school. I loved walking to her house to call on her to walk to school together and in the spring time I was introduced to baseball since the games were always on their TV.... We didn't have one then yet... I lived on Mc Adam on the opposite side of the then Bus parking yard. She was always a good friend, kind, thoughtful and fun. To bad we moved away and I never saw her as an adult.... Thank you for probably the only good memories of that dreadful year as the new girl in school, where many bullies were already thriving back then.... RIP ... I'm glad you became such a success and vivacious loving woman... I'm not surprised.... childhood memory friend I well remember your kindness and fun attitude. - Posted by: Christina Stoose/Stelmach (Luxton school,childhood friends.....brother Barry to) on: Sep 28, 2012

• As you know, their is no such thing as closure. What I've learned is that that old painful familiar feeling is always present. Sometimes, like now, it flairs. It's manageable nevertheless. The last lesson you taught me was how to live without and I am slowly learning it. I'm doing ok. I think you'd like my house. We have a garden, not your thing I know but we like it. I've seen some movies that you would have liked. Some things have happened in the world that you would find good and bad. We would have exchanged some knowing glances. We agreed on a lot of things and the conversation was never forced, always easy and full of life. You were tremendously tough, proud, vain, loyal and always fought for the underdog. You were modern and tolerant. Ok, not always tolerant. I've learned that a better way to pick friends is to seek those who hate the same people that you do. We generally hated the same people. I've learned a lot actually, since you died. I have some success, some failure. I'm sorry that I can't share it with you. You were a go to person, you took my side, sometimes you shouldn't have but you kicked my ass when it needed a kick. Thanks for that. I don't have a card but I am trying to plan ahead. Here on earth, you are missed. I love you. - Posted by: Joel Zivot (son) on: May 12, 2012

• I met Libby over 20 years ago. We became friends the day we met. I loved doing trade shows with her where we would discuss upcoming trends and what we could do to enhance our lines. We loved browsing in Vancouver stores looking for things that would spark an idea of new styles. Each time we got together she always treated me as a King. She inspired me and unknowingly pushed me to excel at my work. I will miss her in this life. I know that I will see her again - Posted by: Jean jacqu chevalier (Friend) on: Aug 21, 2009

• I was so sad to learn of the passing of a caring friend, Libby. Libby and I worked and travelled together to both the Orient and across Canada over many years. She was such a caring person, that she played many roles in my life: my business associate, my travelling partner, my close friend, my advisor, my second mother. She will be missed. May she now rest in peace. My sincere condolences to the entire family. Mark Aziz - Posted by: Mark Aziz (Family) on: Aug 21, 2009
