d. Nov. 12, 2016

Suzanne Roberts, 74, passed away on Nov. 12, 2016.

A memorial service will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 19, at River of Life Ministries, 3409 US 281, Marble Falls, Texas.

A private burial was attended by the family.

Suzanne was born in Liberty, Texas, to Steve and Peggy Green and grew up in Daisetta, Texas, graduating from the Hull-Daisetta Independent School District. She received her undergraduate degree from Baylor University and her Master of Education from Texas A&M University. She utilized her education well, serving first as a teacher, counselor, and finally, assistant principal.  In addition to education, she also had various business ventures, such as constructing and building houses. She met her husband of 54 years and they were married on Aug. 24, 1962. They lived in the Hull-Daisetta and Liberty, Texas, area for 20 years, the Dallas area for another 20 years, and finally the Texas Hill Country for the last 10 years. Together, they had three sons and eight grandchildren. She had a special cousin fund for the grandchildren where, on a cousin’s birthday, each child would receive a small monetary gift and the one celebrating a birthday would receive a much larger amount. Between her and her husband, she was the visionary of the pair, often starting and completing many “projects” throughout their years of marriage. She also had a special arrangement with a local paver stone company in which she could have as many paver stones as she could fit inside her small pickup. As a hobby, with a load of pavers and sand, she would venture to a friend's or relative's home to bless them with anything from a paver stone base for a grill or other projects. Suzanne was deeply patriotic and had a very big heart for our nation’s military personnel, often paying for meals of soldiers she would see in restaurants. She will be deeply missed by her family and many friends.

Suzanne was preceded in death by her parents, Steve and Peggy Green.

She is survived by her husband of 54 years, Tommy Roberts; sons, Kyle Roberts and wife Nannette of Marble Falls, Texas, Koby Roberts and wife Jaime of Boerne, Texas, and Keb Roberts and wife Jennifer of Mansfield, Texas; grandchildren are Ryan, Victoria, Elizabeth, Tyler, Lauren, Paige, Anna and Rachael; brother, Jeff Green and wife Helen of Hardin, Texas.
