My heart and prayers and deepest sympathies go out to your family at this time over your loss. I only had the opportunity to spend time with Roberta once over the years, although I have worked with and known Betty and her son David since 1988. I enjoyed all the time that we had spent together and am truly saddened by her passing. Roberta is truly back home in Kentucky. God Bless.
