It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Malinda Roberts. Malinda was a beautiful soul whose light could brighten even the darkest of days. She had a way of making everyone feel seen, heard, and loved. Her laughter was infectious, her smile could warm a room, and her quick wit and sense of humor left lasting impressions on all who knew her. She was not only our mother, but also a loyal friend, a trusted confidant, and a steady source of strength and encouragement for so many people throughout her life. She carried herself with grace and kindness, always putting the needs of others before her own. Whether it was offering a listening ear, sharing a home-cooked meal, or simply showing up when you needed her most, Malinda’s presence was a gift. She lived her life with an open heart and unwavering love for her family, friends, and community. As we face this unimaginable loss, our hearts are heavy and our family is deeply grieving. We want to honor her life in a way that reflects the beauty, warmth, and love she shared so generously with others. Unfortunately, while she did have life insurance, it required a two-year policy term before benefits could be used, and she had not yet reached that milestone. This has left us with the unexpected burden of covering funeral and memorial costs during an already painful time. We are humbly asking for your support to help give Malinda the beautiful farewell she deserves. Your contributions will go toward her funeral, memorial service, and other expenses needed to celebrate her life and legacy. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference for our family as we navigate this difficult journey. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers. Your support is not only helping us give Malinda the dignified farewell she deserves, but it is also a reminder of the love and community she inspired throughout her life. May her laughter, love, and light live on in all of us.
