Obituary

Clarence "Junior" E. Roberts Jr, 80 of Racine, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully with family by his side on Thursday, October 30, 2025. A man known for his kindness and dedication to family, with a passion for motorcycles and a die-hard Green Bay packer fan. Junior was born on February 5, 1945, in Burlington, the son of Clarence and Margaret Roberts Sr. He was one of eight children born into the family. His parents preceded him in death along with his beloved wife, Lila, his brothers George, Richard, Ronnie, and his sisters Nancy, Judy, and Margie with whom he is now reunited.



Junior married the love of his life, Lila and together they built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and adventure. Their union was blessed with two daughters, Jackie and Shelly.



Junior held many job titles while working at JI Case for 30 years, retiring in 1995. The job he was most proud of was working in the experimental engineering department. Junior had a passion for riding motorcycles and the open road. He and Lila shared many cherished memories traveling together on their motorcycles, exploring new places and enjoying the freedom of the ride. They took countless trips to Sturgis and toured the country on their motorcycles. They became "snowbirds" and spent winters traveling in their RV exploring Florida.



Junior will be remembered for his unwavering dedication to his family, his ingenuity, and his kind and adventurous spirit. He leaves a legacy of love, resilience, and attitude that will continue to inspire all who knew him.



He is survived by his daughter Jackie (Steve) Dannhauser, grandchildren Sami and Stevie Dannhauser. Daughter Shelly (Chico) Rodriguez, grandchildren Mario and Evana Juarez. Great Grandchildren Elijah, Marley, Landon, Jasmine, Mario, Lila, and Tessa. He is also survived by his brother Tom Roberts and niece Paula, and other family members and friends.



A celebration of life honoring Junior will be held Friday, November 7, 2025, at 5:00 pm at Infusino's Banquet Hall, 3201 Rapids Drive, Racine. Relatives and friends may meet with the family from 4:00 pm until the time of service.
