Berocha Ann Libman, nee Miller, was born on Sept. 3, 1934, in Nashville, Ga., near Valdosta. She passed away on March 6, 2025, at age 90. A funeral was held for her at Crest Lawn Memorial Park, 2000 Marietta Blvd., Atlanta, Ga., on Wednesday morning, March 12, 2025, at 10 a.m.
Berocha is survived by her four children: sons, Mark, Paul and Eddie, and her daughter, Leah. She has five grandchildren, Rachel, Amelia, Sam, Sarah and Joseph. She was the oldest of her siblings; Jerry Miller, Cynthia Taratoot and Marilyn Groover (deceased).
Berocha initially attended Valdosta State University and later moved to Atlanta to attend Georgia State University. It was there that she met and later married Melvin Libman in 1955. She passed away on the date of their anniversary. Together, they engagingly raised their children and were involved in a number of activities including Little League baseball, softball, Cub Scouts and numerous school functions. Berocha readily made friends and maintained some of those relationships for many decades. She always had a sweet, welcoming and affectionate demeanor. Berocha worked for many years as an office manager for physicians. Berocha was an avid reader, enjoying fiction primarily with an occasional biography. She was notably particular about proper grammar, syntax and vocabulary. Her parents, Sam and Sarah, were both educators throughout their lives and this undoubtedly had an effect. She would try gardening at times with mixed success.
She always loved animals and genuinely missed having a cat as she got older. Berocha will be missed by all who knew her. She was one of the last of a remarkable generation of good-natured, kind and loyal people. Dressler’s Jewish Funeral Care, 770-451-4999.
