Roberta is survived by her husband, three daughters, Betty Ellis and husband Donnie, Reeds, Missouri; Sherry Whiteman and husband Phillip, Neosho, Missouri; Brandi Hunter and husband Dale, Joplin, Missouri; 10 grandchildren, Mercedese Cutbirth, Robbie Jenkins, Cade Jenkins, Coda Lumpkins, Hailey Ellis, Blade Ellis, Baron Ellis, Dayton Hunter, Brookelyn Cooper, Jacob Cooper; one sister, Vesta Anderson and husband Jay, Moore, Oklahoma; and a son in law, Shawn Cooper.

She was preceded in death by her daughter Samantha Cooper.

A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.

The family requests any contributions be made to Toys for Tots and they may sent in care of the mortuary.
