Kelly K. Roberts, 91

June 02, 2024

Kelly K. Roberts, 91, from New Providence, passed away on Sunday, June 2, 2024. Born in Lancaster on February 9, 1933, Kelly was the devoted wife of Kenneth J. Roberts, Sr., who preceded her in death by just 39 days on April 24, 2024.

Kelly’s life was a tapestry of adventure and love. Married to Kenny for 44 years after meeting on July 4, 1979, and tying the knot on December 1, 1979, she relished traveling across the USA, often accompanying Kenny on his journeys as a Specialized Boat Hauling truck driver. Together, they explored 48 states and cherished their summer getaways to Cape Cod.

Among her numerous escapades, Kelly treasured the moment she met President Jimmy Carter during the Easter Egg Roll at the White House. Her love for travel was matched by her enjoyment of gardening and her fondness for browsing “neat” country stores.

Kelly’s legacy continues through her stepdaughter, Cherie Maguire, and her husband John of Brockton, MA; grandchildren Peter Paluzzi and his wife Jackie Iannone of Somerville, MA, and Mikayla Paluzzi of Aberdeen, NC; as well as her sisters-in-law, Jean Guarino and her husband Steve of Bridgewater, MA, and Nancy Roberts of Brockton, MA, along with many nieces and nephews.

A private memorial service will be held for Kelly. For those wishing to offer condolences to the family, please visit SnyderFuneralHome.com.
