    Roberta was not only a co-worker but my special friend. She was an inspiration to all who knew her. When someone you love and admire becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. She was a kind generous person who will be missed by all. She now is one of God's angels looking down at us and telling us "Everything's Peachy". Goodbye my dear friend and know that I will love you forever.

    Shelby ,Jimmy,Judi & David....
    I am very saddened by the news of the passing of Roberta ( Bert Fern as Ang used to call her) . I have missed her all of the last 15 years. I loved her soooo much. After Ange died I felt so out of place . I am confident they are dancing and singing and having a glorious time. Please remeber the good times and smile...to say she was an awesome woman is an understatement!
