Robert Roberson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 18, 2025.
Robert Gerald Roberson "Bob" born December 28, 1978 went to be with the Lord on September 17, 2025. Born in Durham, NC, he lived in Orangeburg, SC and Wake Forest, NC for many years. He was one of 8, and he was 1 of 2 boys. He loved his family very much and had quite the personality. He is preceded in death by our Grandma (Evelyn White) and Nannie (Elizabeth Roberson), our parents(Jerry and Gwen Roberson), and our brother Chris, who passed away August 31, 2025. Bob leaves behind his 6 sisters, Patricia Bass, Jennie (Jeff) Davis Dottie Roberson, Emily (Trey) Antley, Mary Roberson(Bryan), Susan Roberson, several nieces, nephews, grand nephews a grand niece. He gave his life to the Lord and up until a few years ago was very active in his church. Bob loved the UNC Tar heels and loved to talk smack when it was game time. He enjoyed Steven Segal and Chuck Norris movies and he loved country music, Randy Travis was one of his favorites. While Bob faced physical and mental health challenges over his life, we take great comfort in knowing he is free from all of that and know he is at peace. He is loved and he will be missed by friends and family alike. Rest easy brother.
