She married her lifelong best friend Glen Harder, on November 4, 1958, in Caroline, Alberta. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness, laughter, and love. She had a great love of animals, from raising miniature horses, to raising and breeding Great Pyrenees dogs. Roberta had a huge heart and a great love for family. Her door was always open and she made company feel welcome always. Roberta lived in Caroline, Alberta, and then moved to Revelstoke, British Columbia. They later on moved back to the Caroline area and then to Innisfail, where they operated a taxi business for many years. Family was everything to Roberta. She also had a great love for music. Jam sessions with friends in their homes were a common gathering. She enjoyed camping, family reunions, and gardening.
