Roberta Faye Sanders Williams

Roberta was raised in Compton, California and graduated from Compton High School. On December 23rd, 1966, Roberta gave birth to her first child Neisha Crawford. She later united in matrimony to Thomas Johnson in 1968. On October 10th, 1969, Anthony (Tony) Johnson, was born into the family.

Roberta held several jobs throughout her life. She worked for TRW Airlines and Northrop Airlines and as a data entry operator. In Roberta's latter years, she taught at a Christian school in Norwalk, California before relocating to Palmdale, California, where she taught at Summerwind Elementary.

Where ever Roberta went during her day to day routine, she always managed to make acquaintances and witness to people about Jesus. Whether it was the grocery store, gas station or bookstore, she was only a stranger once. Roberta interacted with people throughout the community and she had the ability to remember a person's name and maybe even the names of their family members, depending on the amount of time she spent conversing with them. She always made herself available to pray for people and their family members no matter who or where she was on any given day.

Roberta's greatest joy next to Jesus Christ were her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She would often say how proud she was of them. Nothing delighted her more than to speak of their accomplishments and their humorous personalities. she enjoyed hearing stories about the silly things her great-grands would do and say. Roberta was a prayer warrior who prayed continuously for her family's protection, prosperity, and most of al for God to use each of them for His Glory.

Those who remain to cherish Roberta's memories include: one brother, DeWayne Sanders and her children Neisha Caldwell, her husband Scott; Anthony Johnson, his wife Wendy; four grandchildren, Cameron Caldwell, Camille Alford, Nathan Johnson, Andrew Johnson; five great-grandchildren, Anaya Alford, Jaco'Pious Alford, Cameron Reece Caldwell Jr, Nylah Caldwell, Jaden Alford and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, family near and far and friends.
