Mary Jane Roberts Miller, 77, of Tallahassee, peacefully passed away on July 21, 2018. Born in Durham, NC December 8, 1940, she was adopted at 18 mos and raised in Tallahassee. She is the daughter of the late Judge and Mrs. B. K. Roberts. She was part of Leon's Class of '58, attending Hollins and Wesleyan Colleges prior to getting married in 1961. Mary Jane lived in Winter Park FL from 1965-80 where she worked in the commercial real estate industry eventually becoming a real estate broker. She and her daughter returned to Tallahassee during the summer of 1980. She enjoyed being back and being closer to her family. Eventually she cared for her aunt, Inez Yent, and her father until both had passed. Her love of the Lord filled her daily and every card/letter she sent held her famous "God Bless You" insert tags. She was a warm and caring friend to those who loved her and her presence will be greatly missed. Mary Jane is predeceased by both of her parents, B.K. and Mary Roberts, and her brother, Tom Roberts. She leaves behind her daughter, MaryAnne Miller Terrell (Richard) of Tallahassee, a granddaughter, Nicole Sealey & grandson, Ryder Mowatt (both of Cleburne, TX), niece, Scout Ganim (Emil), niece and nephews, Kayli, Emil III, Syre, Dennis, Cash and Jojo - all of Tallahassee. She also leaves behind her biological half-siblings John Watson of Chicago, Evelyn Kim (Daniel) of Ruckersburg, VA, David Watson (Pauline) of Cayuga, NY, and William Watson (Linda) of Ruckersville, VA and several nieces and nephews. As Mary Jane's passing was unexpected a Celebration of Life will be planned for a later date and her ashes will be scattered.
