As a teenager, worked at the Standard Coosa-Thatcher textile plant in Chattanooga during the "Great Depression". Married to Arthur N. Robertson for over 40 years. Raised 3 daughters. Member of FBCMJ for over 65 years. Former Secretary at West Elementary in Mt. Juliet, TN for 21 years. Wilson County Schools Employee for 26 Years. Mt. Juliet resident and "Pillar of the Community" for over 65 years. Helped raise a Grandson named Josh. Was a master seamstress and loved to crochet. While living at her last home, Carrick Glen, she crocheted over 100 baby blankets in 1 year at the age of 96. Her key to long life was walking just about every day, working crossword puzzles and having a happy disposition doing whatever she liked. Rest in Peace Grandmom. -Josh
