Louis J. DiLibero, Sr

73, of Cranston, passed away on Thursday, February 12, 2015, at RI Hospital, Providence. He was the beloved husband of the late Merlyn (Tourtellotte) DiLibero. Born in Providence he was a son of the late Louis and Susan (Ruggieri) DiLibero. Louis (or Louie) as he was known to us all had an incredibly joyful outlook on life. He was outgoing and always had a cheerful word for the people he touched. He was never above getting down on the floor and playing with his grandchildren who loved him so much. He loved to fish, hunt and spend time with his children and their families. He was a skilled craftsman who was always willing to lend a hand to help when we needed him. We wish he hadn't left us so soon and we will all miss him forever. Louis is survived by his loving children Sherry Szabo of Charlton, MA, Louis DiLibero, Jr. of Cranston, Brian DiLibero of West Greenwich and Keith DiLibero of Scituate.
