Kenneth Roberson Obituary

On December 16, 2021, Kenneth Allen Roberson left this world  and entered into his eternal home with his Lord and Savior, at the age of 67. After a lengthy illness he passed peacefully in his home with his two daughters by his side. 
Kenneth was born to Bobby Lee & Barbara Joan Roberson (Oroville, Ca.) on November 22, 1954, in Santa Cruz, California. He attended Scotts Valley School K-8 then Soquel High. 
During Ken's young years he enjoyed playing baseball, snow skiing & water skiing. Around the age of 14 he sold chicken eggs to make a little money. He even traded a rooster for a new toilet seat that was needed for his family home. Wheeling and dealing and making money was in his blood. During high school he worked at the Shell Service station in Scotts Valley. 
In June of 1973, at the young age of 19,  he married Cindy Sircable (Lewis). On February 14, 1974, they welcomed their first daughter Dawn Marie. Then on March 5, 1976, Cindy and Ken welcomed their second daughter Melissa Brook. He was a beaming father and loved his daughters with his whole heart.
In the late 1970's Ken went to work for his family at Roberson Brothers laying asphalt then for West Foods Mushroom Plant in Soquel. In the 1980's he joined the Sheet Metal Union and went to work the Furnace Room in Soquel and later worked for ASCO Heat & AC in Morgan Hill. 
In 1989 Ken was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and at the time he (and late wife Rita) moved to Lodi. In 1993 he started his own business Kenneth A. Roberson Gutters Inc. He did very well, met people in the community and made many friends. Everyone would tell you he was an honest guy with a giving heart.  
Ken also had a love for classic cars. He enjoyed going to local car shows and Hot August Nights. There he would show his fire engine red classic Camaro and Chevy Malibu. His fascination for cars started as a youth.He was especially fond of his 1963 Corvette Roadster. Ken was also a collector Hot Wheels, Coca Cola memorabilia, puzzles, vending machines, gas pumps, and coins. 
On February 14, 2005 Ken married Christina Frey. They both had dreams of living in the county. So together they found a home on 9 acres in Acampo. Together they enjoyed country life. There was plenty of room for his collectables and to run his business. Together they enjoyed going to the casinos, and having their kids and grandkids in their company wether it be holidays or riding atv's. Family was always important and well loved.

Ken was my brother in law . He'd always stop by if he was nearby for a cup of coffee.... And before He'd lived he would be on a ladder on my roof checking it out and making sure my gutters were always great. In the middle of one day and just a phone call away he came to my house to protect me in a difficult situation.... He always would tease me that he was a month older than me. And had become a Great Grandpa too ! Love You ! Be Free of all the pain. Ken I'm sure you are looking for a Red Camero to jump into and pedal to the metal for a nice country drive. You are truly missed. . RIP. Connie
