I grew up with Dr. Roberts. So many stories, so much patience. It was awesome being around his family to the point of being part of his family. Having a childhood that you remember fondly is a blessing beyond words - middle school (junior high), high school, college - Dr. Roberts played an irreplaceable True North role in my life during those high octane years. Sometimes because we got caught and he showed grace, and other times we got caught and there were consequences. I am better for both and thankful my life story includes his story.

He was Dr Roberts when I was in the dentist chair and Coach Roberts when I was on baseball field with the Holland Hall Hurricane in 5th and 6th grade. One of the nicest people I've known. He always had a very gentle and encouraging demeanour.
Dr/Coach Roberts was a very good man. I think that's the best thing you can be in life.
My sincere and heartfelt condolences.
