Stillwater, Saratoga County Thomas M. Roberts of Stillwater, NY, died on July 6th, 2020, at home. Thomas was predeceased by his parents Agnes Roberts and Kenneth Cassidy. Tom was raised with the help of his maternal aunts Margaret Kelly, Edna Tucker, Mary D Avignon, and grandparents Charles and Catherine Roberts, all being deceased. He joined the USAF in 1951 and retired in 1971 after being stationed in places such as Great Falls, MT; Goose Bay, Labrador; Puerto Rico; and Cold Bay, Alaska. When younger he enjoyed all the hunting and fishing those areas provided but his favorite trip was king crab fishing for a week off the coast of Alaska. Tom was also employed at Macys in Colonie for over17 years and managed the gourmet foods and small delicatessen. His customers and fellow employees enjoyed his chicken salad and tried for many years to get him to divulge his recipe. Sadly that recipe went to the grave with him. Thomas married Jacquelyn (LaBarge) in 1953, spending nearly 65 years together, until her passing in June 2018. Tom is survived by three children, Kathleen R.
