As this issue of Wagon Wheels goes to press, it become [sic] our sad duty to record the death of Esther (Jarvinen) Roebuck, Sr. who died in her sleep early Tuesday morning February 3rd, at her home in Salinas, Calif. She had looked forward to this issue of Wagon Wheels which contains an article about her son's work on Project Apollo.

Roebuck, Sr. After her marriage, she gave up teaching but returned to teaching during World War II when her sons were grown. In recent years she had served as a substitute teacher in the Salinas schools.
Mrs. Roebuck was an artist of note in the traditional style. She exhibited her paintings at various county fairs, art shows, and art festivals, winning many awards for her still life, landscape and seascape pictures. At each exhibit she sold a number of her paintings and painted pictures on special assignment.
She served as president of the Salinas Fine Arts Club and was active in church and women's club circles. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Salinas, CRTA, and NRTA and the Mendocino County Historical Society.
