Roberta Joy Bumgarner

March 15, 1948 — November 9, 2024

Mandeville

Roberta Joy Bumgarner was born on March 22, 1948 in New Orleans, Louisiana. She passed away on November 4, 2024 in Mandeville, Louisiana.

  Roberta was a life long resident of Louisiana. She worked from a young girl for over 40 years in the insurance industry. In the 1970’s, she was promoted to Executive Vice President of Risk Exchange Corporation of New Orleans where she retired. Roberta was a great person with a large heart that loved her family more than herself. She helped everyone she ever met that needed her. Roberta was one of a kind and her beauty emulated her soul. She was beautiful inside and out.

  She lived her later years at Rouqette Lodge in Mandeville, Louisiana.

 She was preceded in death by daughters Roberta (Robin) Gonzales Webb and Heather Guidry, mother Doris Cortez Pitre, father Robert Leroy Bumgarner Sr., sister Gwendolyn (Gwen) Bumgarner Spansel, and brother Steven Pitre.
 
 She is survived by son-in-law Kenneth Webb, stepdaughter Elaine Guidry, grandson Zachary Dillon Webb (her heart and soul), brother-in-law Dennis Spansel, and two siblings, brother Robert (Bob) Leroy Bumgarner Jr., and sister Bonnie Bumgarner Voelkel with her husband Larry Voelkel.

  I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that she is walking the streets of gold with her daughters, our mom and dad, as well as all the beautiful family members that have passed on. We love you Birdie.

The family also wants to thank all of the wonderful staff and residents at Rouquette Lodge. Their kindness will never be forgotten. The care and endearing love you gave freely will remain with her for eternity.
