Roberta was a lifelong member of Good Shepherd Catholic Church and she enjoyed working bingo. She had worked at Indiana Bell, Sears (in the boys department), and Alexander Funeral Homes. Roberta was very proud of her family and valued her lifelong friends of 75 years. She loved a good joke and telling a good joke. Roberta was generous and appreciated giving her opinion. She was always fair, kind, liked to tease, and was a hard worker. “Well done, good and faithful servant!”
