Daisy-Bell was the oldest child of seven, born to Eugene and Carrie Bennett. She went to school in Millen, Georgia. She later met Johnnie Roberson and fell in love. They were wed in holy matrimony in 1937. Soon after, their son, Johnnie Jr., was born. They settled in Detroit, Michigan in 1948. In 2011, following the death of her husband; Daisy-Bell relocated to El Paso, Texas and joined her son, Johnnie Lee. He was her hearts’ desire. In addition to her loving son, she helped raise a special cousin, Joanne, which she considered and loved as her own daughter.
Her favorite songs were I’d Rather Have Jesus than Silver and Gold and Amazing Grace.
She joined the church as a child and never wavered. She was a devoted daughter, sister, wife, and mother. She will be missed by her nieces, nephews, cousins, and a host of friends and neighbors. She loved children and she loved Jesus. Whenever asked, she made herself available. She always had a smile on her face, she loved hats and when she dressed up heads turned.
The Roberson family would like to acknowledge if you sent cards, flowers, or prayers in our time of bereavement. We thank you from the depths of our hearts.
