Libble Lavelle Coker Boock

Libble Lavelle Coker Boock, 97, passed away from this life to life eternal on Thursday, April 10, 2025, at North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo. Libble was born on August 26, 1927, in Marion County, AL to Henry Myrt and Zera Mae Thompson Coker. She grew up in Carroll County and she was the widow of James Bruce Boock, whom she married on December 11, 1944. After 57 years of marriage, Jim passed away in 2001. She was employed in the area garment industry for many years, and she did sewing and alterations for the public well after her retirement. Libble invested in people and loved nothing more than to sit and visit with her friends. She often gave simple but profound encouragement especially to those who were in difficult times. She would often answer through her quick wit, and she was a fan of all Ole Miss sports. Libble had a deep and abiding faith in God, and she worshipped with her spiritual family at Amory Church of Christ.

Funeral services will be at 3 p.m. on Sunday, April 13, 2025 at Cleveland-Moffett Funeral Home with Ministers Philip Hathcock and Jonathan Godsey officiating. Burial will follow in the Haughton Memorial Park.
