Evelyn Libersky
She was born to John and Tena (Koenen) Ruiter on Sept. 19, 1922. After traveling with her father’s work as railroad depot agent, Evelyn’s family made Lyle their home.

They built their home in Lyle where she lived for more than 65 years. Evelyn will be remembered for her vibrant personality, homemade doughnuts, flower garden, ornate quilts and deep love for her family and friends.
She is survived by her grandson, Jason Libersky (Manuela); and daughter-in-law, Dee Libersky.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Wayne in 2002; and son, Larry in 2007.
