I met Roberta at work. On the first day that she worked the evening shift, I knew we had a wonderful person, an excellent, caring nurse on staff. Since then, we have been building a nice friendship. We had plans to do things together, like go to the Smithsonian. We all were so happy to meet Michael. She said many times that he made her "so happy". It is so sad that Roberta was happy at work and in her personal life, and then it was over. We are really feeling her loss. May Roberta have everlasting peace. With love and prayers for all of you, Carole

Dear Roberta - You will be so missed by Chick, myself, Tara and Erin. You have always been our favorite relative - a little quirky like us - but a wonderful, loving, unselfish person. We still are having a problem comprehending that you are gone. There is so much we really still need to say to you - and never wanted it to be goodbye. We will miss you so much. We promise if Adrienne needs us we will be there for her. We will miss you, toast one to you at the bombfire this year, and know you will never be forgotten by us. We just were not ready to let you go. Love forever - we will meet again. Love, Chick, Linda and Family

Dear Family & Friends, I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. I know words can't take away the pain, but God's word can be of comfort during this difficult time. Revelations 21:3,4. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
