Roberta

It's hard to write much, think much this morning. My thoughts have been consumed with the Bostock/Welker/Sheffler family and the pain they must be experiencing with the loss of their wife, mom, daughter, sister, niece, cousin, and the many, many friends that Roberta touched. I've known this family for 24 years and my heart and prayers go out to them so much. Roberta was so kind, so loving, always smiling. She's the kind of person that others strive to be like, the kind of person others long to be around, but her whole family is that way. Roberta has left a wonderful legacy and will be remembered with warm thoughts and love by all who knew her. Since she was a believer in Jesus, she is celebrating right now and we who share that belief will see her again.

The Christian does not consider death to be the end of his life, but the end of his troubles.
~A. Mark Wells

"A heart of gold stopped beating, two shining eyes at rest. God broke our hearts to prove, He only takes the best."

"Live, love, and laugh often, for you never know which moment is going to be your last."

If you knew her, they are putting together a book for the family. The details are:

In honor of Roberta those of us who were touched by her life would like to compile a book of memories for her family. If you have a story or a picture you would like to share, please write it down and drop it off at any of the following locations.
