From the Los Angeles Times:


May 30, 1938 - April 29, 2016: Mother, grandmother, wife and friend, our beloved Roberta passed away after a long and valiant battle with cancer. Born in Chicago, Roberta moved to Los Angeles as a child and attended Beverly Hills High School followed by USC Dental School and later, Loyola Law School. She lived in Malibu, moved to Santa Monica and spent her last years in Cheviot Hills. Roberta was originally a dental hygenist before becoming a lawyer which led to a lengthy and satisfying career as a LA Superior Court Commissioner. She was the matriarch of our family and we will never stop missing her laughter, her joy, her enthusiasm and her love for everyone who was lucky enough to come into her world. Survived by sons Ben (Lilli), Joshua (Bradon), beloved grandsons Mason, Spencer, Vincent and a new boy on the way. Services will be held at Hillside Memorial Cemetery, Monday May 2 at 3:00pm.
