Remembering Marsha Roberts James Roberts writes: It will be 6 months on November 29th, 2021 since you left us on this earth. It has been hard to say the least, but we must go on and endure until our time to meet you again. I have dreamed of you being in lavender fields with butterflies all around. We still come to visit your grave everyday. We know that you are gone, but it only helps us to remember and be as close to you here as we can. Nothing we can do can bring you back. Only encouraging words to help someone else who’s going through the same thing. That’s all we can do. Till we all meet again. My love, My wife, Our son’s Mother. -- James & Jamison Roberts. 2021-11-29 07:27:45 | Comments | Printable version
