Roberta Louise Warren Cockcroft

April 4, 1939 – November 25, 2025

Roberta Louise Warren Cockcroft was born on April 4, 1939, in Canandaigua, New York, to Olive Burnett and Lyle Warren. She passed away peacefully on November 25, 2025. She was the widow of Thomas Jude Cockcroft. They shared 41 years of marriage together.

Roberta lived in Kissimmee, Florida, with her husband Tom Cockcroft, where she had a successful career as a realtor, helping countless families find their homes. In retirement, she and her husband, Tom, traveled extensively in their RV, enjoying new places, experiences, and the freedom of the open road.

A devoted mother, she is survived by her children: John Parsons (Annette), Steven Parsons (Diana), Michael Parsons (Samantha), Frank Cockcroft (Jennifer), Helen Cockcroft Ritchey (Bruce), and Beth Ann Cockcroft Harvey. Family meant everything to Roberta, and she took great pride in her children and the lives they built. She also leaves behind 18 beloved grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren, who brought her immense joy.

Roberta faced life's challenges with courage, including battles with breast cancer and multiple sclerosis (MS), yet she remained a source of love, inspiration, and resilience to her family and friends. She also had a special place in her heart for her beloved cats, Mindy Sue, and Ming and Thumper (who preceded her in death), who brought her great comfort and companionship.

Her gentle spirit, compassion, and unwavering love will live on in the hearts of her family and all who were fortunate enough to know her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, warmth, and quiet strength that will never be forgotten.

She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
