Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • I never had the pleasure of meeting Roberta. I felt that I knew her, as my Mother-in Law spoke very highly of Roberta. Mrs. Schroeder cared deeply for Roberta. They are now reunited. Rest in peace Roberta, Rest in peace - Posted by: Marlene Schroeder (cousin thru marriage) on: Feb 02, 2016

  • Roberta was a bright , beautiful person who touched many lives. She was adored by her mother and father. As she made her way through life, she did the very best she could. She will be remembered as someone who never meant any harm and always found good in others. A bright light that is now shining in a better place. - Posted by: Peter W.R. Friesen (Brother) on: Feb 01, 2016

  • Roberta has now gone the way of all humankind, that final guaranteed walk all of us will take sooner or later. When compared to the spread of Eternity her stay in our degenerate, fallen world was but oh so brief, albeit oft filled with incomprehensible pain and suffering. As a daughter of Eve she has passed through that dread door of death, death being the ultimate consequence of human rebellion against its Creator. However as a committed follower of Jesus Christ, death had no permanent hold on Roberta. Her spirit then – after her physical passing, came into the glorious presence of the Saviour where there are “eternal pleasures” and where “God … wipe(ed) every tear from (her) eyes”. This is a truly wonderful place to be and is the marvellous aim and hope of all followers of Jesus Christ. - Posted by: Frank Grothe (Brother-in-law) on: Jan 31, 2016
