I have truly lost a great co-worker for the past 10 years, but I have really lost a very dear friend who always uplifted me and genuinely cared about me for who I am. Roberta touched me in so many ways. I admired her strength and her faith. She will be greatly missed. Know that she will always be with us in our hearts and minds
