| Notes |
- Roberta J. (Bert) Reubens died March 7, 2020, in Our Lady of Peace Residence Home Lewiston, NY, that had been her home for the last four years. She was born June 19, 1928, to R. Wayne and Dorothea (Ovenshire) Power, in Canandaigua, NY.
She moved with her husband to Ransomville, NY, in 1950. In her early life, she worked as an aide at Ransomville Hospital. She also worked on the O'Connor Farms for Mary O'Connor. But her main purpose in life was raising her six children. She enjoyed bowling, playing Euchre, and entertaining her friends by yodeling.
Later in life, she moved to Youngstown, NY. She lived there for several years before moving in with her daughter, Susan, due to health conditions. In 2016 she made her home in OLP.
Roberta is survived by her children, Edward (Patricia) Reubens of W. Virginia, F. Joseph (Andrea) Reubens of Canandaigua, Susan (Ronald) Martin of Youngstown, Dr. Harold (Linda) Reubens of Ransomville, and Eileen (John) Chatley of Sanborn; 11 grandchildren, Patrick, Justin, Josh, Rachel, Greg, Pamela, Joseph, Dr. Daniel, Michael, Benjamin and Allison; eight great-grandchildren, William, Rebecca, Andrew, Mason, Chase, Cameron, Noah, and Olivia; three brothers, Wayne (Sonny), Vernon, and Roger; and one sister, Joyce.
She was predeceased by her ex-husband, Harold; a sister, Elsie; a daughter, Linda; and a grandson, Thomas.
The family would like to thank the staff of OLP 3 West for the kindness, affection, and care given to their mother.
Roberta's body was donated to the UB School of Medicine Anatomical Gift Program for teaching purposes. A family memorial will be held at a later date.
Donations may be made to the Youngstown Library, Youngstown, NY, or the Ransomville Ambulance Fund, Ransomville, NY.
