The family of Bernardita Libot is remembering the retired nurse after an allegedly drunk driver fatally struck her in Morton Grove, police said.
Bernardita Libot often worshipped at St. John Brebebuf twice a day.Even at 72 years old, Libot's children say their mother was a real spitfire.But, nothing meant more to her than her grandchildren and God.Retired from a career as a neurology nurse at UIC who served on medical missions in the Philippines, the single mom-turned grandmother spent her days surrounded by family, baking and praying.Around 8 p.m. on Sunday, Bernardita delivered a batch of empanadas to a friend after mass at St.
All three of her children and her grandchildren rushed to her side at Lutheran General in time to say goodbye.Police said Harrington was drunk when he crashed into their mother. He appeared in court on Wednesday after being charged with aggravated DUI causing death. "I was angry at first, but she would want us to forgive him. That would be the right thing to do," Arnold said.
Now, suddenly left without their matriarch, Libot's family said her unexpected last day was filled with her favorite things.Copyright © 2023 WLS-TV. All Rights Reserved.
