Gracie Dean Roberts, 95, of Aztec, New Mexico, passed into the arms of Jesus with her son Mickey by her side on June 19, 2026. She was born on June 9, 1931, in Marshall, Texas, to Johnny Clark and Annie Belle (Pope) Clark.
Gracie (Penny) was the youngest of 11 children. She married Leonard Vaughn Roberts in 1948. They had five children and moved to Farmington in 1967. She was a very accomplished seamstress and was especially talented at making drapes. She made drapes for Lloyd's Carpets as well as Inside Ideas for many years, working into her 80s. She was also a very talented quilter.
Gracie loved playing Yahtzee and Skip-Bo, especially when her grandchildren came into town. She was affectionately called Mama or Mama Roberts by her grandchildren. We all love and miss her very much.
