Barbara Wood Roberts

Barbara Wood Roberts, age 83, completed her earthly life on Feb. 20, 2015, at her home in Miles City during her short illness, she was lovingly cared for by her children.

Barbara was raised on a ranch at Volborg, Montana. She attended high school in Miles City, where she met her future husband, Bill Roberts. Barbara and Bill farmed/ranched on the Yellowstone River, and were parents of 13 children ( including their oldest, John Roberts of Malta).

Barbara was as skilled at running the farm equipment, as she was at efficiently providing for her family’s needs. She was a great cook and seamstress, an avid reader, and enjoyed knitting/crocheting. She will be greatly missed by her 30 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren.
