Jacqueline Kay Roberts was born in 1937 in Jackson, Michigan to Harvard Emmons and Donna Smith Emmons. She grew up near the Lansing, Michigan area and graduated from Portland High School. She loved learning and was an excellent student and began teaching piano at the age of 18. She married her high school sweetheart, Timothy Roberts and together they raised 4 children; Theresa Seibold, Tim Roberts Jr (JoDee), Rose Roberts and Donna Roberts.

Jackie and Tim owned and operated their own businesses, Roberts Landscaping in MI and Plantland Inc. in Austin, TX. They worked for Gene Naumann Real Estate a few years and were active volunteers in an organization that advanced and protected individuals with developmental disabilities. Jackie was very active in the United Methodist Women, accompanying musical groups and teaching children’s music classes after retiring in Burnet County. Neighbors, friends and people in need enjoyed her gifts of home cooked food. Love for her family foremost in her life.
