Where do I begin? We were married over 50 long
years. I want to thank you for being a caring,
compassionate, loving husband. You were a great
father and a great provider. You stuck by us and
always did what was best for us. I miss you so much,
but with Gods help I can stand strong.
The family of Paul Roberts Jr., would like to extend our heartfelt
thanks to everyone for their many acts of kindness and the love you
have shown us during our time of bereavement. The many visits,
telephone calls, texts, and prayers are greatly appreciated. We wish
Gods richest blessings on each of you.
