Roberta Lynn Champion, also known as Robbie and GG, was born December 22, 1956, to her late mother Bille Jean Treace McDonald. She passed away at Northeast Regional Medical Center in Anniston, Alabama, on March 16, 2026.

Robbie held a bachelor's degree in nursing and served as a Registered Nurse at RMC, Stringfellow, and Jacksonville Hospital. She valued time spent with her family and enjoyed singing and reading.

She is survived by her sons, Chris (Tayomi) Nunnally and Luke (Lezly) Champion; eight grandchildren: Altea Tinniehill, Cameron Nunnally, Takarra Wills, DJ Walker, Chris Tindle, JayElla Champion, MaLania Champion, and Jaymus Champion; eight great-grandchildren; her sister, Elizabeth (Allen) Edwards; her aunt, Mary Garrett; and her best friend, Ichabob-Crane. The family extends sincere gratitude to Mary Nell Champion and Shelia Boyd for their dedicated care and assistance to Robbie.

May you always walk in sunshine and God's around you flow, for the happiness you gave us, no one will ever know.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone, a part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

A million times we needed you, a million times we've cried.

If love could only have saved you, you never would have died.

The Lord be with you and may you rest in peace.
