John’s Obituary Scarborough – John H. Roberts, 62, of South Portland, passed away on Monday, July 8, 2019 at the Gosnell Memorial Hospice House. John grew up in Gardiner and Scarborough, the son of Jack and Ethel (Garland) Roberts. He joined the US Navy and spent 6 years stationed in Hawaii and on ships in the South and West Pacific. John worked in the plumbing and heating business; for himself, for Frederick Brothers Oil Co., and the for the last 16 years at Webber Supply as Inside Sales and System Design. John met so many people in his lifetime through his work, his motorcycle, fishing, and golfing. He felt he learned something new from each person and enjoyed sharing his knowledge with them. Recently he found complete joy while fixing up and driving his “new” BMW. John was predeceased by his father Jack and his grandparents. He is survived by his loving wife Lisa Fifield, his mother Ethel, and siblings Priscilla Ames and Steve Roberts. He is also survived by his best friend Craig Strout, his former stepchildren Matt and Erin Perkins, and the entire Roberts clan. He loved you all.
