William was born in Lake Worth, Florida, and moved with his family to Jacksonville in 1964. In 1987, he made Palm Bay, Florida his home, where he built a life centered on family, career, and lifelong friendships.
He was a loving husband, father, son, brother, grandfather, uncle, and friend whose greatest joy was the people he loved. His kindness, strength, and unwavering love will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew him.
As a teenager, William loved spending his days surfing, playing baseball, and football. Those early passions reflected his adventurous spirit and love of the outdoors. As the years went on, he found peace on the water while fishing and enjoyed countless rounds of golf. Whether he was outdoors, sharing stories, or simply spending time with family, he had a way of making every moment meaningful, often with one of his beloved dad jokes.
For nearly 40 years, he dedicated his career to the wholesale irrigation industry, where he earned the respect and friendship of countless colleagues through his hard work, knowledge, and integrity.
Above all, William will be remembered for the love he had for his family. His steady presence, generous heart, and unwavering support shaped the lives of those who knew him. While our hearts are broken, we are grateful for the memories we shared and the legacy of love he leaves behind.
William is survived by his beloved wife, Karen; his loving mother, Florine; his daughter, Rachel, and son-in-law, Zachary; his son, Logan, and daughter-in-law, Emily; his cherished granddaughter, Olivia; and his sisters, Linda, Debbie, and Joanie, along with many extended family members and dear friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, William K. Roberts, Sr., and his sister, Suzanne.
A celebration of William’s life will be held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. at Fountainhead Funeral Home & Memorial Park, 7359 Babcock St SE, Palm Bay, FL 32909.
