To the Weston Family, my prayers and love go out to you all. Mrs. Robertson was one of my two Sunday school teachers that taught us (me) the bible, and was a very beautiful and gracious woman.
She will be dearly missed.
God Bless,

Mrs. Robertson you will truly be missed. God called you home to reunite you and Mr. Robertson once again along with Charlesetta and Charles. To the family my thoughts and prayers are with you during this moment. May God continue to bless each and everyone of you. Trafton Street will never be the same because the GUARDIAN ANGEL has left her post.
