She was born on July 11, 1928, to Henry and Pauline Eurich and grew up in Fresno's Germantown, remaining proud of her Volga German heritage throughout her life.
As a teenager, she worked at Chimo's Flower Shop, where she met Donald Roberts. They were married on November 8, 1947, and moved to Kerman, where they bought a vineyard which the family is still farming today. They were happily married for 52 years, until his death in 1999. The pair had four children, and Edna was very close to all of them.
As the children grew older, she worked part time at Kerman Floral. She also took great pride in her manicured yard, and especially in her beautiful roses. She was also an active member of Kerman's Bethany Lutheran Church.
Edna will truly be missed by all those who knew and loved her.
She is survived by her daughter, Charlene Gaddini and spouse Aldo Gaddini, sons Jerry and James Roberts, grandchildren Nicole and Nicholas Roberts, and her brother Melvin Eurich and spouse Bettilee Eurich.
She is predeceased by her husband, Donald Roberts, son Kenneth Roberts, parents Henry and Pauline Eurich, brother Ronald Eurich, and sister Wilma LaVerne Johnson.
