            Libby was born December 26, 1944 in Anson County, NC  and was a daughter of the late Earl Wright Napier and the late Ann Morgan Napier. She was a graduate of Anson High School and Anson Community College, now South Piedmont Community College. She went on to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Gardner Webb University in 2000.

            She was a life-long member of Polkton Baptist Church. She enjoyed traveling, working in her yard, gardening and taking care of others, whether it be her family or her co-workers.

            Libby was a hard worker and worked for 29 years at Wade Manufacturing in Wadesboro, retiring as Human Resources Director. She built long-lasting friendships with many of her co-workers at Wade.

            Of all her accomplishments, however, her greatest was that of being a wife, mother and grandmother. She loved time shared with her family.

            In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, John Wesley “Johnny” Williams and by a very special caregiver, Paula Tyson.
