John,
The words to convey to you and your family our emotion are very hard to find. We always remember Roberta as a warm, caring and someone with a great sense of humor. The world certainly would be a better place if we had more Robertas in it. I know her memory will help us all.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Joanne - It is impossible to find the words to adequately express sorrow or sympathy over the loss of someone we love...no matter what you tell yourself you find you miss them soo much. We were very sorry to hear the news about your mom. Although we only knew her for a short time..she made us feel like we were old friends. She was always so welcoming and wonderful to talk to. She had a generous heart and a knack for putting you at ease. We feel lucky to have known her. Please know that you and your family are on our mind and in our prayers. John and Darcie Rudolf

Although you do not know me, I would like you to know that Roberta was a lovely person. Our families attended Devereux Memorial Methodist Church, we shared bible study, Friday Night get togethers with the youth group.We parted our ways many years ago, but I never forgot her. She truly was a wonderful person in her younger years also.

Dear John, Joanne, Jenn,
We will miss Roberta and her beautiful smile. I was fortunate to serve on Council with her for 5 years, 2 of which she was the President. She was such an inspiration to all of us fortunate enough to know her at St. Stephens. Joan and Gary Bowman

Hi John ~
I remember Roberta from my years as Church secretary at St. Stephen's (1990-1996) as a warm and wonderful person. I was very upset to see her obituary in the paper. She was always ready to help me with any church project. I am so sorry for your loss. Please give my deepest sympathy to your daughters. Roberta's memory will always be in your heart.

So sorry to hear the news of Roberta's passing. My memories of her are all from her youth. The obituary brings me up to date on the woman she became.
It happens that I will be in the area on Saturday with my grandsons and, if possible, will stop by. Ann Price, Montreal, Canada

I wrote this poem for Roberta..."I say farewell to you my friend, and I do believe it's not the end...but somehow there will be a place, that we will meet with God's great grace". I will miss her smile and her laughter. God bless you John, Joanne and Jenn. Maureen and Jim Henwood

Dear Jenn and Family - Although I never met your mom, I feel that I know her personally, by knowing you Jenn. It was no accident that you are such a lovely young lady and respected by the whole staff at Willard Elementary School. She clearly did a great job raising you, along with your dad, and we will all remember her character and strengths through you. You are her legacy, and when she peeks in on you from her place in Heaven, she will be so proud. Love, Felice Bernstein
