It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Roberta "Bertie" A. Parsons, age 81, of Lodgepole, NE, on Monday, March 17, 2025. Bertie was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, whose unwavering kindness and indomitable spirit touched the lives of all who knew her.

Gehrig-Stitt Chapel & Cremation Service, LLC is in charge of Bertie's care and funeral arrangements.
Bertie was born on May 22, 1943, in Denver, CO, and was the oldest of three children. From a young age, she exhibited a profound love for learning and an innate talent for nurturing those around her. She graduated from Westminster High School in 1961.
She married Everett Parsons, in 1964. Together, they built a happy home filled with love and laughter. They were blessed with 2 sons, Jeff and Kevin, in which she devoted herself to raising with patience and affection.
Mom was an active member in our sports and was referred to as a "baseball mom" by all that knew her. She dedicated everything to making sure we were ready to play even carrying equipment in her purse.
Her legacy is one of compassion, resilience, and unwavering dedication to her family and friends. She leaves behind a wealth of cherished memories and an indelible mark on the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her.
Bertie is survived by her sons, Jeff and Kevin; grandchildren Evan and wife Valerie, Taylor and boyfriend Brannen, and Tyler and wife Paige; great-grandson Jett; her brother, Robbie; and countless friends and family.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Everett, and her parents Robert and Rose Ann.
