Roberta was born on June 22, 1945 in Portland, Maine to late Robert and Dorothy Wilder.
She is survived by her daughter Kathleen and her husband Roger; her grand children Katherine, Peter and Kayla; her great grandson Nile, her long time companion Thomas O’Loughlin and dear friend (and ex husband) Maurice Leteve. Her love for her family was evident in all she said and did. She will be greatly missed.
Roberta moved to New Rochelle when she was 19 years old to be closer to her grandparents and build a life for herself. She married her first husband Maurice at Salem Baptist church on January 11, 1969 where she later went on to teach Sunday school. Her love for children inspired her to open her own day care business. She was honored throughout her career with many awards. She was a long time member of the American Legion & enjoyed writing prayers for them.
Visiting hours will be Tuesday, November 20, 3-7 pm at Lloyd Maxcy & Sons Beauchamp Chapel, 16 Shea Pl, New Rochelle. Interment will be private for family in Maine.
