Sarah Grace S. Roberson

Mrs. Sarah Grace Stallings Roberson, affectionately known to everyone as "Miss Bay," age 92, passed away at her home on Wednesday, February 6, 2008.
Funeral services were held on Sunday, February 10 at 2 p.m. at the First Christian Church with Brother Lomax Owens and Brother Philip Herring officiating. Burial followed in Magnolia Cemetery with Dunklin & Daniels Funeral Home directing.
Miss Bay was born to Sam and Grace Heaton Stallings on November 24, 1915 in Manningham. On June 16, 1934 she married the love of her life, "Mr. Ed" William Edward Roberson, her husband of 69 years until his death in 2003.
Miss Bay was a dedicated servant at First Christian Church working faithfully in every ministry of the church but most importantly in her capacity for decades as director of children's activities, Sunday school teacher, Vacation Bible School director, and member of Christian Women's Fellowship. She also served as Girl Scout leader. Her greatest legacy is the difference she made in the lives of so many children.
Miss Bay was preceded in death by a daughter, Grace Ellen Roberson. She is survived by two daughters, Sue (Kyle) Arnold of Greenville and June (Ben) Pryor, of Birmingham; two sons, Jimmie (Camille) Roberson, of Trussville, and Robert (Joyce) Roberson, of Hoover. She was the proud grandmother of nine grandchildren, Renee' Roberson (Luke) Reid, of Aiken, SC; Ginger Pryor (Brian) Golden, of Homewood; Laurie Pryor (Robert) Brockman, of Birmingham; Keith (Amy) Roberson, of Helena; Kyle (Nicolle) Roberson, of McCalla; Joel Roberson, of Auburn; Jerod Arnold and Leslie Arnold (Frank) Rutland, of Montgomery; and Jennifer Grace Arnold, of Greenville. Great-grandchildren include Ashley Grace Reid of Aiken, SC; Graham and Laura Catherine Carlton, of Homewood; Shane Brockman, of Birmingham; Sterling, Jackson and Frank Rutland, Dustin Bradford and Caleb Arnold, all of Montgomery; Jack Roberson, of Helena; and Cayde Todd, of McCalla.
Pallbearers were Keith, Kyle and Joel Roberson, Graham Carlton, David Burt, Chris Hollyhand, Tom Newton, and Bill Brown.
Honorary pallbearers were Fred Taylor, Shirley Roberson, Lynn Roberson, Eddie Roberson, Johnny Roberson, Mike Morris, Mickey Brown, Cecil Cross, and Tony Butts.
The family received friends on Saturday, February 9, from 5 to 8 p.m. at Dunklin & Daniels Funeral Home.
In honor of Miss Bay's passions in life, which were flowers and books, the family will receive flowers or contributions may be made to the Fort Dale Academy Library Fund, 1100 Gamble Street, Greenville, AL,
