James Owen Roberts

Steve and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was the Best! He always had a smile for everyone and always interested in others. I'm going to miss that smile at the airport it always brightened my day. He has truly left a wonderful legacy behind you should be very proud. Praying for Gods comfort to you and your family. Pam Davis Continental Air

Jim was indeed a gentleman and a professional in the truest sense of the word. He was also a devoted family man. He will be missed.

Such a gentleman! Jim was always a pleasure to be with, whether at a benefit party, chatting in the gallery at the Heckerling Institute, working on a valuation matter, or just passing on the street. He will be missed by me, and I'm sure by all who knew him. Steve and Gann and the whole extended family - you were so blessed to have had Jim as part of your lives. He will live forever in your hearts.

My condolences go out to the entire Roberts Family at this very difficult time. I have only been with MPI for two years, yet i was fortunate enough to have worked with JOR on a fairly large project in early 2004, and for that i am thankful.

He was so gracious and kind to me, always taking the time to say hello when in the Princeton office. He will be missed by all.

Jim was always a real gentleman. It was always a pleasure to work with him. Actually, it was always a pleasure just to see him.

Dear Family,

I am a sixty-one year life insurance agent from Tennessee who has gone to the Heckerling Institute for thirty years. I had the pleasure of dinner with Jim and others one year and mostly looked forward to chatting with him at the booth. He treated me like I was an old friend.

Cherish the memories.

Peace,

Steve Renner

Although Wendy and I never knew Mr. Roberts, we do know his son Stephen,his wife Patty, and their daughters, Lily and Faith. Mr. Roberts must have been a wonderful father and grandfather. He obviously instilled in his children and grandchildren kindness,thoughtfulness, and a love of learning. These are all pieces of a wonderful legacy he left. Our deepest sympathy to his wife and to the family and friends he touched throughout his life.

I am shocked and saddened to learn of Jim's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with Jim's family and associates. He will be missed by all who were so fortunate to have known him.

Steve,

I am so sorry for the loss of your father. I always enjoyed chatting with him at the Heckerling (and elsewhere) and I am saddened by his passing. Please extend my sincerest condolences to the rest of your family.
