Elizabeth “Libby” Hall Dollar, age 69, of Sanford passed away in the comfort of her home on Tuesday, May 27, 2025 after a battle with ALS.
She was born in Lee County to the late Floyd Evan Hall and Ida Blanche Brewer Hall. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her loving husband of 49 years, Gary and sister, Ruby Lee Hall. Libby dedicated many years to raising her children with grace, humor, and an unwavering sense of love. Her home was always open, her arms always welcoming, and her support never in short supply. What began as a hobby rooted in creativity and care soon became a thriving business, when she and her husband, Gary opened their own upholstery shop. Libby was an active member of First Congregational Christian Church.
Libby is survived by her children, Melissa Dollar and companion, Freddie Bowling of Carthage, Gary Dollar II and wife, Meagan of Lemon Springs, Jeremy Dollar and wife, Ashley of Sanford and Brittany Dollar of Carthage; eight grandchildren, Carlee, Hunter, Mason, Haylee, Chandler, Penelope, Ashton and Aiden; one great-grandchild, Kolton; brothers Nelson Hall and wife Laura of Sanford, Roy Hall of South Carolina; sisters Frances Hall Spivey of Sanford, Carol Hall Brown of Moncure, Helen Hall Kremer, Edna Hall Haithcox, Brenda Hall Ashworth and husband Glenn, Nancy Hall Goldberg and husband Mike all of Sanford; sister-in-law Peggy Dilworth and husband Joe of Sanford and nephew Matthew Dilworth and wife Holly of Sanford
The family will receive friends on Saturday, May 31, 2025 from 12:00 PM until 1:45 PM at First Congregational Christian Church (328 McIver Street, Sanford, NC). The funeral service will follow at 2:00 PM with Rev. Robert Thomas officiating. Burial will follow in Buffalo Cemetery.
