A message from Roberta:
If you are reading this, it is because I have moved on to the next step. It is something we all must do, and I am not afraid of it. I am looking forward to being reunited with Jack. We were such a good team in this life. There are so many people I want to thank, starting with my family (immediate and extended). It’s been such a pleasure to have had my three lovely daughters, and my wonderful friends, including the amazing people I worked with during my educational career, and my colleagues at the Macdonnell-Williamson House. Also thank you to the staff at HGH for their wonderful kindness and care. It's time for me to go home.

To Brenda, Barbara and Patricia and to your families, to her sister , her sister-in-law and all of her numerous friends, we would like to express our most sincere condolences. Roberta was like a ray of sunshine, always so cordial and always asking about your health and were you were now in your life. I had the pleasure of doing an interview and also some quilt stitching at the McDonnell House where I could buy her super yummy jams and jellies. She was a great advocate for children's education and left her legacy for the new teachers. May the skies be ready for this great spirit and may all the beautiful memories created with her bring you serenity and courage.

Je garderai toujours un bon souvenir de Madame Histed. Lors de mon mandat de député, j'ai eu le plaisir d'échanger avec elle à nombre de reprises sur des sujets qui lui tenaient à coeur, dont surtout le grand dossier de l'éducation. Elle nous laisse un bilan fort honorable pour l'immensité de sa contribution communautaire. Merci madame Histed. Chère famille, veuillez accepter mes condoléances les plus sincères. Jean POIRIER, ancien député provincial, Alfred Ontario.
Jean Poirier
My sincere condolences to Roberta’s family. I still have many memories of her and her work in the community, her and Jack’s.
