Darrell Lee Roberson

July 11, 1963 — June 5, 2025

Darrell Lee Roberson, a cherished father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away on June 5, 2025, at the age of 61. Born on July 11, 1963, he was known for his kind and generous spirit, embodying the qualities of a strong-willed and loving individual. His warmth and caring nature made him a beloved figure in the lives of all who knew him.

Throughout his life, Darrell was a devoted family man, best known as a great dad and grandpa. He took immense pride in supporting his children: Destiny York, Brianna Johnson (William Johnson IV), and Mykaela Roberson. His grandchildren, Carter, Cayson, Avalynn, and Aniylah, brought him great joy, and he cherished every moment spent with them.

In addition to his immediate family, Darrell is survived by his brothers, Wayne Roberson and Roy Jernigan, and his mother, Marian York-Helrigle. He also leaves behind the mother of his children, Danielle York, along with many nieces, nephews, family, and friends who loved him dearly.

Darrell had a passion for cars, enjoying working on and selling them during his younger years. He found pleasure in playing pool, which was a testament to his lively and engaging personality. His nurturing and supportive demeanor will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege to know him.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Anna and Harry Roberson, who welcomed him into their family and taught him the values he upheld throughout his life.
