It is with profound sadness that we remember and honor the life of Bobby Allen Roberts, who peacefully passed away on March 22nd, 2026, at Ohio County Hospital. Born on May 1st, 1979, in Daviess County, Kentucky, Bobby lived a life defined by faith, service, and unwavering love for his family and community.
Bobby’s life was a testament to devotion—both to his faith and to the people around him. As a deacon at Hartford Baptist Church, he exemplified a heart committed to God, finding joy in serving the children and guiding others in their spiritual journeys. His love for the Lord was evident in every action, and his presence in the church was a source of encouragement and strength to all who knew him.
Beyond his spiritual life, Bobby was a man of remarkable generosity and selflessness. He loved working with his hands, whether in creating, repairing, or lending a helping touch wherever needed. Time spent outdoors brought him peace and happiness, yet even in his personal pursuits, he was ever mindful of the needs of others. Family, friends, and neighbors all knew Bobby as someone who was always ready to offer his time, energy, and care without hesitation.
Bobby leaves behind a legacy of love and devotion through his family. He was a devoted husband to Nikki Cummins Roberts, a caring and proud father to Madison and Matthew Roberts, and a loving son, brother, and son-in-law. His extended family, including his siblings, in-laws, nieces, nephews, and cherished friends at Hartford Baptist Church, will forever carry memories of his laughter, guidance, and unwavering support.
Though Bobby is preceded in death by his father, James Roberts, Sr.; his mother-in-law, Barbara Cummins; and his brother-in-law, John Cummins, his spirit lives on in every life he touched. In honoring his memory, we celebrate a man whose hands were always busy with service, whose heart was always open with love, and whose life exemplified faith in action.
As we gather to remember Bobby at Hartford Baptist Church, let us reflect on his extraordinary life, his kind soul, and his enduring impact. May the family find comfort in knowing that Bobby’s legacy of devotion, humility, and service will continue to inspire all who had the privilege to know him.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Bobby Roberts Memorial Fund at Hartford Baptist Church, a fitting tribute to a life so generously lived.
