ROBERTS, Edward Albert
'Ed'

Beloved husband, father, and grandfather passed away December 29, 2012. Born September 10, 1944, Ed retired from Union Pacific Railroad as a signal maintainer. He married Carol and had three sons, Eddie, Lonnie and Daniel. Later marrying Darlene. He is survived by two sons, Eddie and Lonnie and their spouses, 1 brother and 1 sister, many grandchildren and dear friends. Ed was a man of great wisdom and humor who was very proud of his native heritage. He accomplished many things in life but most of all the construction of a trimaran boat.
