Dorothy "Libby" Elizabeth Hammann

She was born on February 11, 1958, in Kansas City, Missouri, to Alfred “Bud” Roeder and Dorothy Ruth (Barclay) Roeder. Libby grew up alongside her siblings — Diana, Daniel, Joyce, Alfred, Mike, Marta, Kay, Jimmy, Kathy, Howard, Janice, Wanda, and Denise — and graduated from South High School in Wichita, Kansas.

Libby met the love of her life, David Michael Hammann, at work. The two married on August 28, 1993, and shared 24 wonderful years together until his passing in 2017. In 2020, she reconnected with an old friend Bob Sample and the two remained close until her passing.

She was the proud mother of Meredith Antoinette Campa (born 1976) and Brandon Beedles (born 1982), and a devoted grandmother to Adrian Campa, Mario Campa, Noah Beedles, Alex Ortiz, and Olivia Ortiz.

Libby dedicated over 30 years to The Coleman Company, where she worked in assembly and customer service. Her coworkers were like family to her and brought her great joy throughout the years.

She also devoted much of her time to volunteering with The Salvation Army, giving back to her community in any way she could.

Libby was a lifelong Kansas City Chiefs fan who loved spending time with her family and grandchildren. Whether she was taking them on adventures, watching TV together, or simply sharing a meal, she always found a way to make every moment fun. She enjoyed cooking, reading, and caring for her beloved cats — Hagatha, Lucy, and Squeeky.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Alfred “Bud” Roeder and Dorothy Ruth Roeder; her husband, David Hammann; and her siblings, Alfred Roeder, Mike Roeder, Marta Roeder, Kathy Branson and Denise Craig.

Libby is survived by her daughter, Meredith Campa; son, Brandon Beedles; niece, Brandy Roeder; son-in-law, Mario Ortiz; grandsons, Adrian Campa (partner Lambert Gonzalez), Mario Campa, Noah Beedles, Alex Ortiz, and Olivia Ortiz; and siblings, Diana Kovac, Daniel Kobe, Joyce Wagerman, Kay Branson, Jimmy Branson, Howard Roeder, Janice Roeder, and Wanda Powell.

Her kindness, laughter, and love will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Family Stories

****Hard worker who always provided for her family. Always a joker with inappropriate humor with family. The glue that kept everyone together. She would buy the grandkids McDonalds anytime they asked. Always there anytime anyone needed anything. Truly a loving sole. She had a quick wit, funny stories and fast comebacks. She could keep up with anyone! She would love to watch her grandson on 12 news and laugh with him about what Mr. Food would say. Strongest women any of us have ever met, overcame many challenges in life and always came out on top. A survivor who wouldn't want her family sad but remembering the good times. Just a woman who overcame many life obstacles .

****Meredith's most special memory of mom is seeing her 1st grandchild born (Adrian). She lived for family, especially all her grandkids (Adrian, Mario, Noah, Alex and Olivia). She was always listening to Stevie Nicks. Always made it to events and gave a full 110% in anything she did. Made everyone feel extra special on birthdays and holidays.

****Funniest most loving person any of us knew. Always making jokes and loved spending time with family and cooking for family. Hosted awesome family get togethers.
