    Dale, Gail, Dennis & Rhoda: While I visited with Uncle Frank & Aunt Tina Roberts at Life Care Center in Cape Girardeau, yesterday, I learned of our family’s loss. Aunt Juanita was one of my father’s favorite sisters and our whole family loved her dearly. Even though we live far apart, thoughts of the Roberts clan are always with us. We have a lifetime of good memories and a rich legacy that few families can claim. May God give you peace in your time of sorrow. Hope to visit with some of you at the reunion in March.
