Roland Watts Obituary
He served in the United States Navy from June 20, 1950, to December 8, 1955, as an Aviation Machinists' Mate R Third Class.
In his younger years, you could find Roland on the baseball field- playing men's fast-pitch softball or coaching little league for his boys. When he retired you could always find him on the golf course playing a round of golf with his wife, Donna, his friends, or golfing in a ProAm tournament. He also loved boating, fishing, and jeeping.
Roland is survived by his daughter, Terri Needham (Mark) of Surprise, Arizona; his son, Mitch Watts (Carla) of Carson City, Nevada; his 6 grandchildren: Maci (Garrett), Desiree (Jeff), Ashley (Brodie), Jason (Heather), Scott (Brenna) and Sara (Tyler); as well as his 15 great-grandchildren: Carson, Cohen and Jillian; Kaleb and Wyatt; Zetta and Rowdie; Alaina and Raiden; Brixon and Revy Rose; Kane, Jacob, Jackson, and Liam.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Herb and Margaret Watts; his sister, Dorcas Senum; his brother Dean Watts; his wife, Donna Watts, his son, Robert Watts (Bobby); and his granddaughter, Melinda Needham.
Burial will be at Memory Gardens Cemetery, 3873 East Avenue, Livermore, California 94550.
