Eagle Rock Resident Was Longtime Gala Industries Employee

Mrs. Elizabeth (Lib) Fuller Dudding, 94, of Eagle Rock, Virginia, died Saturday, December 26, 2020 at the Glebe in Daleville.

Lib was born on June 22, 1926 in Eagle Rock, Virginia, a daughter of the late James Austin Fuller and Delia May Bryant Fuller.

She was preceded in death by her husband in 1997, Carl S. (Sam) Dudding; three brothers, Chester Fuller, J. A. Fuller, Jr., and E. B. Fuller; and four sisters, Helen Schumaker; Margaret Craft, Blanche Alderson, and Dorothy Miller.

Survivors include her son, Carl Michael Dudding of Eagle Rock; two sisters-in-Law, Mrs. Jerry (Marjorie) Dupree of Buchanan and Margaret Huffman of Madison Heights; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Lib graduated from Eagle Rock High School in 1944, where she enjoyed playing basketball. After graduation, she continued to work at the High School as the School Secretary and also coached girls' basketball.

She later worked for Gala Industries for approximately 25 years in various capacities from shipping, to secretarial, and accounting, and other tasks.

Lib was a wonderful wife, mother, sister, aunt, and neighbor, and will be sadly missed by many. Family was of most importance to her, and she was always ready to help whenever there was a need.

She enjoyed reading, with American History as her favorite, and gardening, quilting, crocheting, ceramics, and knitting, and spending time with the numerous dogs, cats, and horses that she adopted throughout her life time. After retiring from Gala Industries in 1985, she and Sam enjoyed traveling throughout parts of the United States.

A graveside memorial service will be held on Saturday, January 2, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. at the Eagle Rock United Methodist Church Cemetery with Reverend Don McKinney officiating.

Arrangements are being handled by Botetourt Funeral Home.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Good Samaritan Hospice, 2408 Electric Road, Roanoke VA 24018 or to the Eagle Rock Fire and Rescue, 14762 Church Street, Eagle Rock, VA 24085.

Special thanks to the staff and residents of the Glebe where Lib resided for the past five years, and to the staff at Good Samaritan Hospice. Extra special thanks to Crystal Shelor who sat with Lib the first couple years at the Glebe.
