Roberta was taken to God while at Blanche River Health in Kirkland Lake on Thursday July 7, 2022. Roberta Louise (Veidenheimer) Porter, in her 77th year, was the beloved wife of David Porter and will remain in his heart always. She was the loving mother of Sarah Duncan and her husband Peter of Echo Lake, NS., Lisa Ingram and her husband John of Kirkland Lake, and Christina Zanella of Port Dover, and the loving aunt of Jennifer deWaard, and grand-nieces Farah and Priscilla. She was the dear sister of Valerie Hogg and the late Bobby Veidenheimer and loved daughter of the late Helen and Robert Veidenheimer. Roberta was a loving, caring and strong woman who always put others first, and will be missed by all including her dear friend Carol and Carol's children Leanne and David, grandson Sebastian, and nieces and nephews Kelly, Steven, Linda, Paul, Debbie, Kim, Crystal and Bob. We all love you so much and will miss you every day, but are at peace knowing you are now with God.
