Pauline Roberson

In Loving Memory of Pauline “Tiny” Roberson

“To know Pauline was to love her.”

Pauline was born on September 26, 1947, in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mary Sue McQueen and Willie Roberson. From an early age, she possessed a warmth and kindness that would become the hallmark of her life. At an early age, Pauline accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior, and her unwavering faith remained the foundation of her life. She faithfully served in her church, participating in church programs and ministries, always willing to lend a helping hand wherever she was needed. Pauline believed in treating everyone with dignity, extending grace to others, and sharing God’s love through her words, actions, and the way she lived each day.

Pauline was a proud graduate of Central State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree. Driven by her passion for learning and personal growth, she later earned a Master’s degree in Education, reflecting her lifelong commitment to education, perseverance, and self-improvement.

Although life took her to Atlanta, Georgia, where she built a successful career and formed countless lifelong friendships, Ohio was always home. Atlanta became the place where she flourished professionally and built a life she loved. In her later years, she returned to West Chester, Ohio, where she enjoyed spending time with family and lifelong friends.

For more than 30 years, Pauline proudly served with Delta Air Lines. She was admired for her professionalism, dependability, and exceptional work ethic. To Pauline, her coworkers became lifelong friends, and customers were welcomed with warmth, respect, and genuine kindness. She left a lasting impression on everyone she encountered.

She had an extraordinary gift for making everyone feel welcome. Whether you met her once or knew her for decades, Pauline had a remarkable way of making you feel seen, valued, and loved. Her infectious smile, warm hugs, generous heart, and caring spirit left an unforgettable mark on everyone fortunate enough to know her.

Pauline was also known for her impeccable sense of style. She loved fashion and carried herself with elegance, confidence, and grace. Whether attending church, traveling, celebrating with family, or simply enjoying a day out, Pauline always looked her very best. Her style reflected her vibrant personality—classic, sophisticated, beautiful, and full of life.

Above all, Pauline cherished her family and the relationships she built throughout her life. One of her greatest joys of her life was her beloved goddaughter, MacKenzie. Their

bond was one of unconditional love, unwavering support, countless treasured memories, and a friendship that only grew stronger with time. Pauline loved MacKenzie with all her heart and took great pride in being her godmother.

Pauline was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Mary Sue McQueen and Willie Roberson, and her beloved brother, Anthony Roberson.

She leaves to cherish her precious memory her loving Aunt Claudine and Uncle Russell; her beloved nephews, Anthony Roberson and Steffen Roberson; her cherished goddaughter, MacKenzie; a host of loving cousins; countless dear friends; her Delta Air Lines family; and all whose lives were forever touched by her kindness, generosity, faith, and love.

Pauline’s life was a beautiful reflection of faith, compassion, elegance, and service. She taught us that true beauty comes not only from how we look, but from how we treat people. Her legacy is one of grace, strength, faith, and unconditional love—a legacy that will continue to inspire everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

Although our hearts are broken by her passing, we find comfort in knowing that the love Pauline shared will never fade. We will forever miss her warm embrace, her beautiful smile, her impeccable style, her words of encouragement, and the laughter that filled every room she entered. While her earthly journey has come to an end, we rejoice in knowing that she is resting in the loving arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

“Well done, good and faithful servant.” — Matthew 25:2

Her life was a blessing. Her memory will be a treasure. She was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.
