To the Richard, Don and the entire family of John Roberts: Please accept Beth’s and my most sincere condolences on the death of your beloved John. My fond memories of both John and Richard go back to my days working in the Edgewood Pro Shop. Warren and Bea, with John and Richard, would pop by the golf course from time to time to check things out and we’d have a pleasant visit. I had crossed paths earlier with both John and Richard in junior high days. My wife, Beth, enjoyed getting to know Bea, Richard and John early in our marriage and it was always a delight to see them. The love shared in the Roberts family was remarkable. Beth and I would enjoy seeing John working at Hornbacher’s over the years. Regards, Beth and Erik
