Obituary for Leo "Bo" Hubert | Tibbetts-Fischer Funeral Home (tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com)
August 31, 1939 ~ July 26, 2022 (age 82)
Leo “Bo” Hubert, 82, passed away Tuesday, July 26, 2022, in his home with his family in Belleville, Kansas. He was born on August 31, 1939, in Concordia, Kansas, to Leo and Virginia (Bessette) Hubert.
Bo graduated from Notre Dame High School, Concordia, Kansas, in 1957.
He married Susan Peterson on October 3, 1964, at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Clyde, Kansas.
Bo began work after high school with his father at Hubert Trucking, Concordia, Kansas, until drafted into the army. When he was honorably discharged, he went to work for Cloud Ceramics. From there, he worked at the Boogaarts Warehouse for 30 years until it closed, and then drove a semi-truck delivering groceries for an additional seven years. Bo retired as a bus driver for USD 333 after 14 years of service.
Bo was a member of the St. Edward’s Catholic Church, Belleville, Kansas, and enjoyed altar serving at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, Concordia, Kansas, for almost 75 years.
He enjoyed hunting and fishing and was known for trapping and skinning in his younger years. He never truly had a hobby, but he spent his time working either laying bricks with his brother-in-law, shingling roofs, cleaning and laying carpet, making improvements to St. Concordia Cemetery, and working in any way to help his family and friends.
His greatest memories came from playing cards and snooker, watching his kids and grandkids play sports, sing, act, dance, and shine, and spending time with his loved ones.
Bo is survived by his wife Susan, Belleville, Kansas; children Mark (Cathy) Hubert, Ballwin, MO; Luke (Michelle) Hubert, Belleville, KS; Anne (Jared) Collette, Belleville, KS; six grandchildren, Blaine Hubert, Columbia, MO; Clayton Hubert, Andrew and Emma Hubert, and Matthew and Leo Collette, Belleville, KS; and many other family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents Leo and Virginia Hubert; brother Robert Paul Hubert; sisters Dorothy Charbonneau and Vivian Crump; and son John Hubert.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, July 30, 2022, at St. Edward’s Catholic Church, Belleville, Kansas with Fr. Michael Peterson and Fr. Henry Baxa officiating. Burial will follow in the St. Concordia Catholic Cemetery, Concordia, Kansas.
Visitation will be on Friday, July 29, 2022, from 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. with a rosary at 6 p.m. and family greeting friends after the rosary, all at Tibbetts-Fischer Funeral Home, Belleville.
