Ted Lamar Roberts

Ted Lamar Roberts, Born August 1, 1955, in Mobile, Alabama, passed away in the early morning of July 27, 2024. Early mornings were his favorite time of day as a young boy. As a young boy growing up in the Cedar Creek community, he spent many hours exploring the outdoors. The three greatest loves of his life were Jesus, his family, and playing pranks on family and friends. He spent many summers on his beloved Dog River camping with the Roberts and Webb families. After his retirement, he found pleasure in finding his roots. He traveled all over South Georgia and Alabama locating birthplaces and final resting places of ancestors.
