Kathryn Roberson Obituary

She was an active member of her church, where she volunteered her time and talent by leading bible studies and serving in many other ways.

She is survived by her devoted husband of 30 years, Bill Roberson; her daughters Luciana, Katrina (Jay), and Geraldine; her sons William II and Harley (Rosanna); brothers Charlie (Mary Louise) Williams, Jr., Donald J.

Miss Katie what a beautiful woman! One of the first persons I meet when I moved here. Always a warm and loving smile and kind word. Loved all her grandbabies. Although we had only known each other a short time she made ME feel part of her life. I will miss her and our chats
