Gloria Roberts

July 13, 1924 - May 22, 2021

Gloria Alice Scott Roberts, 96 years of age, went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on May 22, 2021. Gloria is survived by two daughters, Carol Roberts (of Little Elm, TX) and Karen Files (of Frisco, TX), and her son-in-laws Wesley Moore and Roger Files. Seven grandchildren: Kimberly Hollingsworth Gorden, Amber Hollingsworth Finn, Jennifer Files Hood, Christopher Files, Jeffrey Files, Kasee Moore Thomas, and Jay Moore and eleven great-grandchildren called her MeMaw, and were the love of her life. She is preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Jerry Darrell Roberts, as well as one brother and three sisters. Gloria was born July 13, 1924 in Beaumont, TX, where she grew up and married. In 1960, she and Jerry moved to Corsicana, TX, where they operated White’s Auto Store until retiring in 1983. They were active members of Northside Baptist Church and First Baptist Church in Corsicana. To spend more time with their family, the couple moved to Denton, TX in 2002. They resided at Good Samaritan Denton Village and became members of Highland Baptist Church. Several years after Jerry passed away, Gloria moved to Bethesda Gardens, an assisted living facility in Frisco, TX. She resided there for over five years, before having a traumatic head injury from a fall. Her sweet and caring personality always brought her many friends. A graveside service will be held at Oakwood Cemetery in Corsicana, Tx on May 27, 2021 at 2 o’clock. Gloria’s family would like to extend a special thank you to loving caregivers at Bethesda Gardens of Frisco, as well as to Hospice Select of Dallas, Tx.
