ROEBUCK – Chris Roebuck of Theodore passed away on February 16, 2021 after a long battle with heart disease and rheumatoid arthritis. Chris was born on April 28, 1953 in Theodore, the youngest son of Louis and Nettie (nee Pacholko) Roebuck. He attended school in Theodore. Chris met the love of his life Bernice Roebuck (nee Krupa) in August 1973. Shortly after they moved to Chris’ family farm where they stayed until 2004. Bernice passed away on January 20, 2006 and Chris was heartbroken. He never moved on from losing Bernice and always talked about her. Together they had 5 daughters: March 6, 1976 Andrea was born, twins Laura Lee and Laura Lynn on October 11,1977, Angela on April 3, 1979 and Amy May on 20,1980. Once their hands were full with a bunch of kids Chris worked extremely hard to support his big family. Chris worked many years a bricklayer with his brother Michael at Roebuck Masonry. In 1978 he started with Yorkton Concrete Products. In the early years there wasn’t always work with YCP so Chris found other jobs to keep the family going. He working with a logging company and also for the Village of Springside, however he spent most of his working years with YCP. Chris was forced to take an early retirement due to complications from arthritis and he forever missed the crew and the work at YCP.
Anyone that knew Chris, knew his memory was exceptional. Chris could tell you anyone’s birthday that he ever met and you only had to tell him your birthday once and he remembered forever. Chris had a great love for classic cars. He remembered many details about classic cars and would talk about them for hours. He had a deep love and appreciation of music. Chris was a huge animal lover, loved being with friends, going for drives, spending time with family and playing crib. Chris had the biggest heart in the world and anyone that met him will forever remember him.
