Roberta and I at the Lake 2016

She was a part of my childhood that I will dearly miss, and I am thanking God for how long I got to have her in my life. I was blessed to have known her. She is gone too soon. I will see you again, my friend. You are dancing with the angels and the loved ones that went...

I am grieving the loss of Roberta. I have so many memories of her and I at the cabin. Her and I with our kids...prayers to all of you! She loved life!

Hugs to Jess, Jen and Roger

Roger and family, I am so deeply saddened to hear the news of Roberta´s passing. She was truly a loving and kind person. Sending love and prayers to your entire family.

We shared a special bond, grandma´s. She was always sharing photos with me and many grandson´s birthday parties together. Jennifer and Jessica your were blessed with the best mom and grandma. And the love she showed you radiates in your lives and your families.
