Elizabeth “Aunt Libby” King

Elizabeth “Aunt Libby” King, 100, of Browns, IL passed from this life to the next on October 30, 2018 at Deaconess Midtown in Evansville, IN.

Aunt Libby was born August 28, 1918 in Gloster, MS to Caroline E. (Gwin) and Raymond L. Berry. She married Kenneth King in Nevada, and he preceded her in death.

She was a gifted artist, and the owner of King Collection of Carvings. She and her husband carved beautiful wooden pieces of artwork that were sold at the Grand Canyon gift shops. Many people prized her carvings, and she was a charter member of the Arizona Woodcarvers. She and Kenneth enjoyed visiting historical Indian campgrounds. They also collected driftwood to be used for bird carvings. Aunt Libby had a very pleasant personality.

She is survived by three nieces: Elizabeth Ellen, LeeAnn Alcorn, and Jenny Edwards; four nephews: Douglas Rotramel, Armine Rotramel, Doug King, and Carlton Berry. She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, sister Janice Rotramel, and brother Eugene Berry.

The family would like to thank the staff of Oakview Heights in Mt. Carmel for their excellent care.
