Marty Roberson Obituary

Published by Legacy on Mar. 1, 2026.
Marty Leon Roberson, age 65, of Antioch, Tennessee, passed away on February 22, 2026.

Marty was a devoted family man, skilled craftsman, and loyal friend. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Deidra Roberson, whom he cherished deeply.

He is survived by his loving mother, Jean Roberson; his daughter, Jessica Roberson; his son, Chris Roberson; and his six treasured grandchildren: Austin, Aiden, Noah, Bentley, Sarah, and Kailey. His family was his greatest pride and joy, and he found immense happiness in being "Papa" to his grandchildren.

Marty worked for many years as a welder and carpenter, trades in which he took great pride. He was known for his strong work ethic, steady hands, and the care he put into everything he built and repaired.

Outside of work, Marty embraced life's simple pleasures. He loved spending time at the lake fishing and being outdoors. He never passed up an opportunity to sing karaoke, play the drums, or share one of his many great stories with family and friends. Marty also had a special place in his heart for animals and loved his dogs very much.

Marty will be remembered for his hardworking spirit, his love of family, and the warmth and laughter he brought into the lives of those who knew him. His presence will be deeply missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of all who loved him.
