Roberta C. Russell, beloved wife, mother, sister and friend, passed away on July 24, 2025 in Poway, CA.  She was 80 years old.

Born on January 8, 1945 in Queens, New York, Roberta brought joy, humor and generosity to everyone who knew her.  She spent many years as a dedicated International Sales Administrator for an optics company, where her warmth and kindness earned her lasting friendships across the globe.

Roberta had an extraordinary gift for making others feel loved.  She was endlessly generous ~ especially when it came to gift giving, always thinking of friends and their children.  She had a great sense of humor, often bringing laughter and light into everyday moments.  She found joy in quilting and cherished the adventures she shared traveling with her husband, Frank.

Roberta is survived by her loving husband, Frank; her devoted children, Renee and Bob;  her brother Phil and family, and her sister-in-law Barbara and family.  Her presence in their lives was everything and her absence is profoundly felt.

A private memorial will be held by her family.
