IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Sep 23, 1947 — Apr 7, 2026
Newton
Mattie "Lois" Temple Roberts was born on September 23, 1947, in Decatur, Mississippi to the late Lola Bell and Al Temple. On April 7, 2026, God reached out His hand to His servant and said, "Come and take your rest now my humble servant".
To know Lois was to love her. She was a caring soul whose presence brought comfort and joy to everyone she met.
She accepted Christ at an early age and was a faithful member of Greater Corinth Missionary Baptist Church, where Reverend Gary Moore was her pastor until her health failed her.
She was preceded in death by both of her parents; her husband, Kenneth Roberts; one daughter, Angeline Temple; one son, Robert Temple; two sisters, Elaine George and Julia "Faye" Temple; and two brothers, M.J. Temple and Ollie Temple.
She leaves to cherish her memory: her sister, Louella Temple; two brothers, Carl Temple and Johnny Temple; three special cousins who are more like sisters, Merline Cato, Earline Johnson and Janell Nicholes; along with a host of nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles.
