Not sure what to say?

I met Mrs. Robertson in 1977 at Whitney M. Young Magnet High School. She was always amazing and we loved her to life! She will forever be missed and always remembered. Rest Peacefully until we meet for your Choir Rehearsal in Heaven.

I am heartbroken because I didn't know. I loved being in your Choirs from 1977 until I graduated in the Summer of 1980. We survived everything that happened in 1979 but you still made us attend rehearsals for all of our recitals and competitions. Your talents were only matched by your love for teaching, music, performance, and us!!? Whitney Young is on the map still because of you. Your style will always be yours alone. I will always love you and I appreciate everything that you taught...

My heartfelt sympathy and prayers for the family of Mattie Robertson. May God be your comfort and strength.

Whenever her name popped up on my caller ID, I knew I had to answer. She didn´t call just to chat about the weather-she called with purpose, always encouraging you to use your spiritual gifts given by God through the person of the Holy Spirit because you knew Jesus Christ or your...

Mrs. Robertson will definitely be missed. Her classiness, warm heart, stern hand and loving personality all embodied in one, made her the special person that she was. Just as so many will share, Mrs. Rob and I had our special moments and in her true spirit, she never let me down and guided me as only she could. Mrs. Rob will always have a special place in my heart. I will love you forever Mrs. Rob
