Dorothy "Scottie" Moncla Roberts, 83, of Lusby, MD departed this life peacefully surrounded by family and friends on August 16, 2009. Born in Opelousas, Louisiana on December 22, 1925. She was the beloved mother of Renee Maree Roberts (Lafayette, LA), Robin Andrew Roberts (Alexandria, VA), Craig Gerard Roberts (Grand Junction CO.), devoted partner, Phillip Patrick Teeter, admired grandmother of Sasha, Garret, Zach, Ben, Rebecca and great grandmother of Elliot.

Scottie led a life of steadfast determination and generosity. She wove those attributes into every segment of her life as a prolific artist, a patient educator, a lover of the outdoors, a constant traveler and a devoted friend of people from all walks of like. She will be remembered for her sweet soft laugh, colorful gardens and celebrations for every achievement. As a Navy wife she relocated often but was always ready to share Gumbo. Scottie was a life long learner and her patient attitude contributed to the love of learning that she instilled in all children she came in contact with.

A Mass and Memorial Service was held on Tuesday, August 18 at 12 noon at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church, Solomons, MD.
