Support Jennifer Roberson After Tragic Loss

This is Tamara Boyette and my best friend of 51 years, Jennifer Roberson, received a phone call on Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025, that NO mother should ever have to get. She was starting her day normally with a cup of coffee and reading her FB feed. She got a call informing her that her precious only child had been tragically killed in a camper fire where he lived in Ontario, Oregon (1500 miles away from her).

Imagine the despair, confusion, desperation, and all the other emotions that she was hit with all at once. Falling to her knees with absolutely no explanation of this worst news and at that moment feeling that life was completely over for her.

Because she is a strong woman in God, she picked herself up and began to notify friends and family who rushed to console her. She also demanded answers from all police and sheriff offices that were on the case. The facts began to trickle in and the way her precious baby boy died is unimaginable to everyone as the case is now a homicide.

Ricky Cole Fowler aka Cole Pepper, born 9/4/1992, was a vibrant, curious, funny, compassionate, and loving boy. As he grew up, he was always for the underdog and stood up for the weak and bullied. If he friended you, it was forever. He made sure you were always protected. He never had much money, but if you were in need, he’d do whatever he could to meet your need over his.

I am asking on Jennifer’s behalf for financial help as she navigates through a world she has been plummeted into. Please pray for her and the family and if you will, please generously give monetarily to help with getting him home and end-of-life expenses. God bless everyone who took the time to read this. Every amount helps.
