Peggy Hill Roberts, 78, of Bruce, died January 3, 2020 at her home surrounded by family. Born July 24, 1941 in Aberdeen, she was the daughter of A.B. Hill and Ruby Frances Hutchins.
A woman with an active lifestyle, she not only enjoyed browsing the racks and aisles of many different shops, but also the thrill of a trip to the casino in hopes of bringing home big winnings. She also loved the beauty and serenity of riding her family’s pontoon boat followed by a beachside bonfire. Caring for others topped her list of attributes, which could be evidenced by her willingness to babysit and just be with her family.
She leaves behind a loving family to cherish the memories with her: husband, David Roberts, Bruce; daughter, Tammy Roberts, Bruce; son, Don (Tina) Williams, Dumas, AR; grandchildren, David (Bridget) Williams and Lindsey Roberts; beloved great grandchildren; sisters, Mavis Peacock, Leesville, LA; Etoyle Thomas, Indianola; Ruby Watts, Laurel, and a host of nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, and sister Ann Shoemake.
Her funeral service was January 4 in the chapel of Parker Memorial Home with Bro. David Westmoreland officiating. John Austin Bray, Chris Burress, W.R. “Chick” Hensley, Dennis Mitchell, David Williams and Don Williams served as pallbearers. She was laid to rest in Longtown Cemetery in Crenshaw.
