The resolution honors the life and legacy of Dr. Bobby Gene Roberts Sr., who passed away on June 13, 2025, at the age of 90. Born on May 26, 1935, in San Augustine, Texas, Dr. Roberts was a dedicated Southern Baptist minister, ordained in 1955. He graduated from Baylor University and earned advanced degrees from Luther Rice Seminary. Throughout his ministry, he served various churches across Texas and later focused on evangelism and mission work, particularly in Belize, where he founded Christian Foundations of Faith, Inc. His impactful "Sixty Second Sermon" devotionals and television broadcasts reached many in North and Central America.

Dr. Roberts is remembered not only for his contributions to the church and community but also for his loving family, including his wife Gay, their four children, six grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. The resolution expresses condolences to his family and acknowledges the profound sadness felt by those who knew him, while also celebrating the enduring legacy he leaves behind. The Texas Senate officially pays tribute to Dr. Roberts and plans to adjourn in his memory.
