Patti Ercele Roberts, 61, of Indianapolis, went home to be with the Lord on the morning of Friday, March 15, 2019 at Rosewalk Nursing Home in Indianapolis. She was born on August 21, 1957 at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis, a daughter of the late Dentist Eldine and Rachael Ercele (Bledsoe) Roberts. Patti was raised on the east side of Indianapolis where she attended Howe High School. She worked as a cook at the Turtle Creek Senior Living for six years then later transitioned to the Indiana School for the Deaf where she worked in the cafeteria for 13 enjoyable years. Patti had a happy and humorous personality. She often made people laugh while she handed out candy and speeding tickets to her friends and neighbors at Rosewalk for “walking too fast”. She enjoyed coloring books, crocheting, card games, jigsaw puzzles, giving hugs and greeting everyone around her. Those left to cherish her memory include her siblings, David (wife: Jolene) Duff of Benton, AR, Carole (husband: Gene) Stacy of Indianapolis, Kathy Barlow of Fort Worth, TX, Bryce (wife: Vicki) Roberts of Arapahoe, WY, Joyce (husband: Tim) Murdick of Greenfield and Michael Roberts of Indianapolis; several aunts, uncles and many cousins, nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents.
