George Tibert

George J. Tibert, 77, of rural Voss, North Dakota, passed away July 3rd, 2026 at Altru Hospital in Grand Forks, North Dakota, after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.

George Joseph Tibert was born on October 12th, 1948 to J. Budd and Louise (Wosick) Tibert of Voss, ND. Raised on the family farm in rural Voss, he attended Minto School before serving in the U.S. Army from February 1968 to December 1969, during which he was stationed in Germany. George was self-made machinist, a collector, loved history, and was, in every sense, an artist. He enjoyed painting, creating stained glass, rebuilding antique automobiles, creating original works of art, and was known for his remarkable craftsmanship and creativity. George had an endlessly curious and unique mind. He possessed an extraordinary ability to turn his visions into reality, impressing those who knew him with his talent, knowledge, and ingenuity.

George is survived by his special friend Kim Tweten, siblings Bill (Jody) Tibert, John Tibert, Melvin (Cathy) Tibert, Mary Alice (Mark) Tweten, Ione Worman, Andrew (Rhonda) Tibert, sister-in-law Suzi Tibert; along with many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, sisters Louise Tibert and Lorraine Tibert, brothers Walter Tibert and Mark Tibert; brother-in-law, Joseph Worman and nephew, Daniel Worman.

A Celebration of Life Open House will be held on Thursday, July 23, 2026, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Minto Community Center. Family and friends are invited to attend.
