    • Aunt Roberta,
      Your loving presence at every family event created cherished memories that we will carry with us forever. You were always there, greeting us all with your warm hugs and squeezing all my babies cheeks 🤍 You had a special way of making each of us feel valued and loved, and your spirit will always remain in our hearts- We will miss you dearly but will celebrate the beautiful legacy of love you left behind. Rest in peace and please tell Papa Roy we love and miss him so much.

  2. Aunt Roberta,
    We haven’t spent much time together once I became an adult but my childhood memories were always you smiling, giving me compliments and always had my side. You and your family will be in our prayers.
    With love always.

  3. Our dearest Aunt Roberta,
    My earliest memory of you is when you brought a puppy to our home. I was only six years old, but I remember it so clearly. Our new pup, Jip brought so much happiness to our family, and lived a long and good life. I will always treasure the happy memories you have given me. I loved spending a week at your house when I was a teenager, visiting my first winery, and celebrating birthdays at Chi-Chi’s throughout the years. How we would laugh so hard! I remember the crepes you made for breakfast were the best ever. Your chocolate and peanut butter fudge that you made for my dad was a delicacy. My dad would always share a piece or two with me. Jeff, Carrie and I are so thankful that we were together celebrating with you in Port Clinton. (Craig and Danielle’s wedding) We miss you so much. May you fly high with all the angels, and give my dad and brother, Buzz a big hug. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time. May they have peace and keep all their wonderful memories tucked in their hearts forever. Love you Aunt Berta, Robin and Jeff and family

  4. Dearest friend and sister -in- law,
    So many good memories. We go back to our teenage years, the best. May the angels surround you.
    Love you and miss you. Joan/and as you would call me Tash, from my middle name, Natasha.
    Rest in Peace

  5. Roberta “Bert” I had the pleasure of spending time with you when my sister in law Bonnie would come to town from Texas. You two had a special friendship since school days and I enjoyed all the stories and laughs. You found us The Best crab legs and the best restaurants. You were truly special in how you would remember all the details of my life, when time spent together was so short. You were so loving and easy to be with. We will miss you deeply.

  6. Sending our love and sincere condolences ~ to the entire Dobie family. Mrs. Dobie was the glue that held this family together. It now gets passed on. She will be missed by so many. GOD has reunited Mr. & Mrs. Dobie.

  7. Roberta was such a nice person, just met her this past year but when I think her I see her beautiful smile. Prayers and sympathy for her and her family.

  8. Aunt Roberta,
    “They are being bad.” So many times I heard that phrase in my home, from you, to your brothers, and loved ones. Of course it was out of love, in a loving moment, of all having such a cherished time. You, with your brothers, Frank, Roy and Eddie, and your sister Louis, and Aunt Joan. You were a beloved sister to them all. And, what wonderful times were shared. Aunt Roberta, you were a eminent piece of the family and you will be greatly missed. Your recognisable laugh, your unforgiving hug, and your ability to make us all feel like we were just where we needed to be, will be forever missed. Rest in peace Aunt Roberta

  9. Our Dearest Aunt Roberta,
    Whenever you would see me you would squeeze my cheeks and say Cheech how are you? You did it again a year ago at Craig & Danielles’ wedding. She loved being around family and would work the scene to enjoy everybody’s company with a smile!
    Coming over to our house on Sterling in the 60s you would eat cereal every time with me before bed and talk and laugh about things!
    When I was in a dark time in my life you wrote a letter that had so many positive thoughts, and stated God is at your side Chi Chi and will get you through all this!
    Remembering the time we all went to the Rod Stewart concert back in the 90s & she brought her own flask of wine after Dad died (Roy) & Joan went also, what an adventure! We can all talk forever about such good memories as a family! That is what family is all about, coming from the heart and real ❤️ loving!
    You will be so dearly missed from your family and extended!
    God bless to everyone that knew Roberta
    Rest in peace
