Marian was born Jan. 17, 1916, on her grandfather's farm northeast of Atkinson, NE. to Clyde O. and Elsie V. Nilson. In 1933, she married Fred Roberts. He died in 1984. Survivors are: son, Richard "Bud" Roberts and his wife, Betty, of Lawton, OK.; daughter, Patricia Butterfield and her husband, Floyd, of Kearney, NE.; daughter, Mickie King and her husband, Bill, of Lawton, OK.; son, Gary and his wife, Elizabeth, of Denton, TX.; daughter, Mona Scott of Frederick, CO.; sister, Mavis of Colorado; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends. Marian attended a one-room rural school and when the family moved to Atkinson, NE. she completed high school at Atkinson (NE.) High. Marian was active in the Atkinson, NE. community and was member of First Presbyterian Church, Atkinson, NE. Fred was a faithful member of the Atkinson (NE.) Fire Department and Marian helped organize the Firemen's Wives Auxiliary. She was also a den mother for several years when Fred was the cubmaster. She also helped when Fred was the scoutmaster. She was active in a 4-H Club called the "Golden Key." On her 50th birthday she became an assistant mail carrier and then began serving as a star route carrier on a route that covered nearly 100 miles on country roads north of Atkinson. She retired from the mail route after serving 20 years and then became more involved in church work. After Fred died she moved to Colorado and lived with her sister, Mavis for awhile, then moved back to Atkinson, NE. and purchased a house and lived there for 20 years. After her 90th birthday she fell and fractured her leg. Because of complications she moved to WEL-Life, an assisted living facility, in Kearney, NE. to be near her daughter, Pat. After falling again and being unable to get around without help, she moved to the Mount Carmel Home, Kearney, NE. in 2011. Marian will be missed by all who knew her because of her pleasant personality, quick wit and her caring for others. Until her eyesight failed her she was an avid reader, was an expert in crossword puzzles and loved to travel. She was also an excellent photographer with her point-and-shoot camera. Marian was preceded in death by: son, Ron Roberts and son-in-law, Dick Scott. Burial was in The Phoenix Cemetery north of Atkinson, NE. Published in Kearney Hub on April 13, 2013
