Roberta has been a very good friend of mine for more than 40 years. We first met at Auto-Owners where Roberta helped many people (including me) advance their careers by promoting continuing education. She has love for God and family. She was a great mother to Jeff and a great friend to me. I will never forget the friendship we had. RIP my friend. I miss you. Brenda Hennenfent
Jeff, as we spoke earlier this week you and your mom have been part of the Collins Family from my earliest memories 60 years ago. We will cherish all the special holiday gatherings and many other’s. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love from Hazel, Terry, Dale and Karen Collins.
