Just found out about this, my sincere condolences to a great Dad and the entire family. Dr. Roberts family was my next door neighbor as a young boy in Lexington for the 13 years I lived there. I had to have eye surgery twice when I was very young and Dr Roberts gave my father Dana Boynton very good advice about the procedures ( my twin brother and I had ) as an Optometrist and neighbor. I remember him and his family as wonderful people. I miss every thing about that town, that neighborhood and the fine friendship the Roberts gave us.

To Mrs. Roberts, Jane and Ann,
I have so many fond memories of your Husband and Dad....whether it was as part of the Hebrew School car pool, enjoying time with our very friendly, warm and sincere neighbor of visiting Dr. Roberts for eye exams. He was always such a dear and sweet gentleman.

May all the good times you shared with him always be a blessing.

With sympathy,
Lee Cohen

Dear Sally and Family,

So sorry to hear about Jerry's passing. I will always remember his kindness as he introduced me to the profession of optometry that led me to a career as an Air Force ophthalmologist. Denise and I will be forever thankful for his guidance and friendship.
