DOLORES JUNE LIBKA

Dolores June Libka, 90, of Alpena, was welcomed into her heavenly home on April 15, 2024, at Hillman’s Haven.

Dolores June Parfitt was born June 17, 1933, in Alpena, to the late William and Evelyn (Boboltz) Parfitt. On May 10, 1952, she married Warren Libka. He preceded her in death on Nov. 25, 2014. She loved their Hubbard Lake cottage, watching thousands of beautiful sunsets and hours and hours in the lake. Dolores enjoyed cooking, baking cinnamon rolls and bread, knitting, fishing (catching two pike 36″ & 40″ long), and camping. She crocheted afghans for each child, grandchild, and some great-grandchildren before her arthritis and memory wouldn’t allow her to continue. Most of all, she loved caring for her family and home and raising the kids.

Surviving are her four children, Warren Jr. (Shelley) Libka, Patti (Gary) Parkham, Susan (Steve) McConnell, Mark (Amy) Libka; 10 grandchildren, Shauna Libka, Leigh Ann (Alan) Duncan, Danielle (Adam) Fort, Katie (Beau) Webb, Brian (Savanah Penrod) Parkham, Scott Parkham, Jeremy (fiancee MacKenzie Wirgau) McConnell, Cory McConnell, Darby Libka, Brooke Libka; six great-grandchildren, Sobie, Britton, Annie, Beckham, Hudson, and Theo.

The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at Hillman’s Haven for the great care they provided mom over the past 15 months.

Visitation will take place Friday at St. Paul Lutheran Church – Alpena from 11 a.m. until the funeral service at 1 p.m. with the Rev. John Shipman officiating. Arrangements have been handled by the Bannan Funeral Home.
