Mrs Roberts and family I am so sorry for your lost. I remember when I was in your class and Mr. Roberts would drop by to see you, you were like a teenager. Your marriage had that special spark of happiness that even a 15 year old could see. May the Lord and your memories give you comfort in the coming days a head.

Ginger, my childhood memories include those fun times at the beach where you both breathed so much life into every minute. Thomas would intrigue us with his knowledge and love of nature by simply holding a scoop of sand or a sea creature. Not only was he interesting to talk to, but he really cared about the time with the listener. He truly is a great man whether here or in heaven. Sadly for us, the wait now begins until we meet him again. So to you, Tom, Todd and your families, Please be strong, stay healthy and know that you are loved. David & Tammy

The crowd today at Boone Family substantiates the warmth and care that so many people feel toward Tom Roberts and his family. He leaves quite a legacy. He loved and was so cherished by his family. There is no greater legacy than that. After standing in line well after the time for the service today, I chose to sign the register and use this sight to tell you that our community has been blessed with the life of a gentleman who won't soon be forgotten. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Virginia, Peck, Todd,
May you know God's comfort and peace at this time of loss and grief. I count myself privileged to have known Tom! In my opinion and experience of Tom he had the unique and uncanny ability to "tell the truth in love." He was, indeed, an encourager.

I am so sorry for your loss. The Bible provides comfort during these difficult times. Revelation 21:3,4...states "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away". Very soon now, we will never experience losing our loved ones in death.
