Peggy Pruitt Roberson

Peggy Louise Pruitt Roberson, age 84, passed away Saturday, February 8, 2025, at Wendover Hospice House. She was born April 19, 1940, in Catawba County to the late James Cletus “Ike”, Sr. and Mazelle Lorene Smith Pruitt.

Peggy was known to many as funny, witty, and as having a bright smile and an infectious laugh. She could be found putting together puzzles, “marking” in her books (coloring), reading a variety of different books, and crafting. 

Peggy would always express her true feelings on anything you asked. She enjoyed life and her friends and family. No matter where she ended up, she was always the first person to jump into the car for an adventure. She always looked at the world with childlike wonder and love.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Iris Delores Bivens Osment; brothers, J.C. Pruitt, Jr., and Bobby Ray Pruitt; and sisters, Beadie Evelyn Self, Lillie Sue Taylor, and Vera Mae Lowery.

Survivors include her daughter, Brenda Roberson; sisters, Mary Lou Dellinger, and Levon Hoyle; grandchildren, Joey Silver, Kimberly Osment-Jones (Jerod), Savannaha Osment (James Evans), Pyper Jones, and Sheina Bridges; several great-grandchildren; numerous great-great grandchildren; and quite a few nieces and nephews.

A Memorial Service will be held at 2:00 PM Saturday, February 22, 2025, at Carpenter-Porter Funeral Home, with Pastor Darin Gibbs officiating. The family will receive friends from 1:00 to 1:45 PM, prior to the service at the funeral home. Burial will be private.
