Roberta Clump Obituary
Roberta was born on October 12, 1938 in Bismarck, ND to William and Helen (White)Twilling. A 1956 graduate of Dawson County High School, Roberta wed Tom Clump Jr. and began the life of a military wife and mother moving her young family between Virginia Beach, VA, Escondido, CA, Glasgow, MT and Missoula, MT before returning in 1972 to build a home on the family farm in West Glendive.
Roberta worked for Reynolds Grocery before she began her career as the water clerk for the City of Glendive. As water clerk she knew who paid their bills on time, who would run into city hall at the last minute, and who still hadn't fixed their leaky toilets.
Grandma Bert was a regular fixture at high school ballgames and events cheering on the DCHS Red Devils. She had a love for children, spent countless hours playing cards and board games; and could often be found on the floor helping construct the next tower, farm, racetrack or village.
Roberta is survived by her children: Beverly (Earl) Corneliusen, Robert (Connie) Clump and Barbara Clump; 8 grandchildren: Travis Corneliusen, Blake (Lacey) Corneliusen, Cory (Matt) Clump, Keri (Kyle) Goings, Bryce Clump, Jeff (Samie) Klemenhagen, Brittney Clump and Jordan Clump; 3 great-grandchildren: Archer Corneliusen, Brevik Corneliusen and Kalli Goings; and her siblings: Allen (Fujie) Twilling, Patricia Colarchik and Bill (Bonnie) Twilling. Special cousin: Phyllis Lindsey.
Roberta was preceeded in death by her parents William Twilling and Helen Twilling, brother-in-law Cyril Colarchik, and granddaughter-in-law Kristin Corneliusen.
The family would like to extend their sincere thanks to the staff of the Heritage, the Wibaux Nursing Home as well as the close-knit community of friends and neighbors near Roberta's home on Taylor Ave in Glendive.
