Roberta was an active volunteer in the church office, sang in the church choir, sang with the Plano Senior Center Serenaders, was a member of a book club, and went dancing any chance she had. Roberta A. Siffrar gave her heart to everyone freely, would help strangers in need, and was the foundation of our family! She was Mom to soldiers on base who she fed during the holidays if she found out they had no one to go home to, she was Mom to all our friends, but most of all she was Our Mom! We always had a beautiful Christmas full of awesome childhood memories. She always decorated for each holiday and made sure her family was well provided for! No one EVER left her house hungry unless they wanted to! Mom was an avid boater, scuba diver, dancer (including belly dancing), tutor, chef, fashionista, medic, and she even won a beauty contest in her youth! Thank you to the best Mommy in the World! You are loved and will be missed by so many!
