Roberta Ann Hawkins Kirkpatrick

To Roberta's family
(especially Kirk, Felicia, Demecia, little Sam, Carol, and Ella)

I now have another hole in my heart that was left by Roberta. She was a very dear friend to me and I will miss her terribly. I've been missing our lunch dates for a long time now and it hurts to know that they will never resume. She was one of the most kind, caring, sincere, compassionate, and forgiving christians I have ever known and though my heart is broken I rejoice that she is now with our...

Dear Family, I will always remember one of the warmest, braviest women I have ever known. I am so glad that I could call her "Friend", her life was a testimony. I loved and admired her dearly.

My heart aches for the loss of my friend. I know how good she was to me and I thank God for such special people like her. I'm 41 now and when I grow up, I still want to be like you. To the family, my condolences and God's speed.

to Felicia and Sam Kirkpatrick and the children eventhough i did not know Miss Bert well she was a sweet lady,and by being a close friend of Felicia's i could tell how much they meant to each other. i just wanted you to know Fefe that my heart goes out to you in your time of need and that i will always love you like you were my sister.just remember she no longer has to suffer. i love you and keep your head up cause she will be watching over you always.

Birt touched our lives in so many good and happy ways that it is difficult to envisage our lives devoid of her bodily presence. We are thankful for her good and cheerful spirit. We grieve with you and are grateful for a good and loving God who, in the absence of her bodily presence, will let her good spirit live in our memories and console us. God Bless Your Family.

Roberta and I were friends for many years when we both worked at the Oak Ridge Associated Universities. Her spirt was and is among the most loving and kind I have ever known.
