Victoria June Roberts
August 29, 2018
Victoria June Roberts, 60, of Pensacola, Florida, was called Home by our Lord on August 21, 2018. She was born to Harmon Edwards and Beverly Reamer Watson on April 14, 1958, in Pensacola. Vicki was an extremely gracious woman, who was selfless and generous to all she knew. Her passion for helping others shown through wherever she went. Vicki was an army veteran who served honorably in Berlin in the early 1980’s. She then trained to become a registered nurse and began a career as a traveling nurse for a number of years, before settling down in Pensacola, where she worked at all of the major hospitals, specializing in OB/GYN and mother/baby units. An ardent volunteer, she especially loved participating in the annual Relay for Life. Vicki was a valued member of the Baptist Hospital nursing staff and was beloved by all her co-workers and treated them as her second family. Stoic in resolve, yet compassionate in her care giving, Vicki helped many a newborn baby into this world during her life. She had been recognized countless times, by patients, for her professional and loving care of both mother and child. She was ardently devoted to all of her family and especially daughter, Alhena and granddaughter, Emma Rose who were the lights of her life.
Survived to mourn her loss are her mother, Beverly Watson; husband, Donnie Roberts; daughter, Alhena Roberts; grandchild, Emma Rose Frantz, all of Pensacola; stepchildren, Erika Stewart (Matthew) of Indianapolis, IN, Evan Roberts (Meisha) of Bedford, IN, and Elli Roberts (Drew) of California, MD; sister, Jennifer Edwards and son, Austin of Orange Park, FL; brothers, David Edwards (Tami), and Chip Edwards of Pensacola. Her loss is also felt by niece, Tiffany Edwards; nephew, David Edwards Jr. of Pensacola; and her loving family at Baptist Hospital.
We need not weep for Vicki, for she is in Heaven with our Lord and Savior. Although the pain we feel from losing such a genuinely kind woman will last forever, we should look back on the memories fondly and smile, for that is exactly what she would want us to do.
A celebration of Vicki’s life will be held at Calvary Bible Fellowship, 10460 Motley Court, Pensacola, FL on September 15, 2018, at 2 p.m.
In lieu of flowers the family wishes that donations be made to the American Diabetes Association.
