William Dale Roberts Sr.

Bill proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy from May 1, 1955 to May 1, 1959. He worked for Associated for 26 years delivering pipes all over Washington. Bill enjoyed many things in his life, snowmobiling in Naples, ID, fishing in Montana and road trips all over the country. His biggest joys were his family and friends, he loved having them come to visit so he could share his stories. Sadly cancer took our special man who will be greatly missed by each and every one of us. We love you Poppa.
