      It is truly a shock. I met Carterball at NNSY. He was a dependable and stand-up co-worker. I pray the family will find comfort knowing Carterball was respected and considered a friend. Thank you for sharing him with us.

    To the family of the late Carlton E. “Catter-ball” Roberts, I express my deepest condolences during this time of transition. Words cannot express the sadness felt when hearing the news of C-ball’s passing.

    He was always full of energy and laughter in any room or area he graced with his presence ever sense I met him in his early teenage years. Moreover, he was a joy to work with when I first got to the shipyard (2002). He actually taught me a lot about MY JOB and we were not even in the same code; just very knowledgeable.

    May God comfort and keep you all during this time of loss. Just trust that He will be with you all the way. God bless you and your loved ones.

    To the family of the late Carlton E. “Catter-ball” Roberts, we, Larry and Angela Fuller, Chris & Kendrick Perry express our deepest condolences during this time. There are no words to express the sadness we felt in hearing the news of Carlton’s passing.

    I will always remember his beautiful smile! When he use to deliver the newspaper to my parents on Warfield Drive his smile and persona was always pleasant and welcoming. Carlton will be missed but every time we see Lil Carlton, we will always remember “C-Ball”. May you feel our love and the power of our prayers during this time of transition! Much love to you Carlton, Jr. and your family! Rest in paradise Carlton E. “C-Ball” Roberts!

    “Saying goodbye isn’t for us. Instead, I will say that I look forward to seeing my friend again, each time I am reminded of him/her through a phrase, a joke, even an article of clothing. These are the things that will keep us close despite death.””A true friend is never truly gone. Their spirit lives on in the memories of those who loved them.”
