Samuel Roberts Obituary

Samuel Isaac Roberts
1989-2021
Samuel Isaac Roberts tragically passed away in Houston, Texas on March 12, 2021. He was 32 years old. Samuel, or "Sam" as many called him, had a sweet and caring demeanor, as well as a great sense of humor, always making those around him laugh. Samuel grew up in Southside Place where he spent his adolescence attending the Southside Place summer camp and would later lifeguard at the Southside Place Pool during his teenage years. He was an International Baccalaureate graduate of Mirabeau B. Lamar High School, and then subsequently attended Southern Methodist University and the University of Houston. Samuel was preceded in death by his grandfather, Russell Sutton; grandparents Jack and BJ Roberts, and; brother, Stephen Samuel Roberts. He is survived today by his parents, Don and Karen Roberts; older sister, Kelly Bryant and husband Stephen Bryant, and their children Minnie, MillieBeth, and Harrison; older brother, Benjamin Roberts and wife Laura Venta, and their daughters Penny and Lydia; younger brother, Joseph Roberts, and; grandmother, Virginia Sutton. Samuel's family thanks the friends and colleagues that showed him kindness, love, and compassion as he struggled with his mental health. We will celebrate Samuel's life on March 27, 2021. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the National Alliance of Mental Illness at https://nami.org, or the Crisis Intervention of Houston at https://www.crisishotline.org/.
