Roberta was born in Medicine Hat, AB, the second eldest of 5 sisters. She moved to Leduc, AB where she met and married her true love Stuart and had 2 children. In 1972 the family moved to Whitehorse, Yukon where she enjoyed working, camping, fishing, travelling to Alaska & spending time at their cabin at Marsh Lake. In 1981, they relocated to Kelowna, BC, where she worked as a sales associate for Naturalizer Shoes & Bi-way then later managing Subway Restaurants until she retired. Co-owning with family, 3 DCT Chambers Trucks and Your Dollar Store With More in Grand Forks, BC kept her busy & happy. Roberta loved spending time with her family, friends, her dog Mocha-Bean and spending winters in Arizona. On most days you would find her cooking, gardening, working on a puzzle or scrapbooking. Roberta took pride in making sure you always had a full drink in your hand and never left hungry!
Always Loved, Never Forgotten, Forever Missed.
