State, ending up in West Seattle. Willard graduated from West Seattle HSC in 1932. He lived his earlier years in the Okanogan Valley in Oroville, Washington, and worked for the Great Northern Railroad. He was retired after 34 years of very hard and fulfilling work. During those years of working for Great Northern he took his children on a most memorable trip to Florida on the Vista Dome NorthWest Limited. He was married
to Bertha McKinley. They had one son, Willard James "Jim" Roberts of Seattle, Washington. He married
Claire Elaine Freemire in 1942.

His great grandchildren include Haelin Roberts of Edmonds, Washington, and Anthony Gabriel "Baby Tony" of Sacramento, Chelsea Roberts of Pennsylvania.

He often displayed the rattlers' tails and fangs at an exhibit held at the annual May Day Festival in Oroville and other various locations in the Okanogan Valley. He loved fishing with his children and spent much time fishing at Cecil Creek. He loved to sing the old songs he taught his children so many years ago. He gave to us the same love and joy of singing. "Dear Dad - You left behind the song in your heart and took with you the song in mine. Happy Father's Day. Rest in Peace." Love, Jim, Don and Kathy. Services are pending the return of his son, Donald, from Turkey. A Celebration of his Life will be held sometime the first week of July. (Obit dated 06/21/2001.)
