Our History The Roberts Family has been dedicated to funeral service since 1898, When C.V. Roberts, a dedicated community leader, first entered the profession in a small frame building in Ocala. In 1937, C.V. passed the business to his son, Edgar S. Roberts, and together they owned and operated Roberts Funeral Home at it's present location in downtown Ocala.
Edgar's two sons, Terry and Kenneth, followed in the family tradition by entering the funeral profession, and were actively involved in the family business. The Roberts Family were visionaries, and in 1964 built the first and only crematory in North Central Florida and for many years provided cremations for other funeral homes.
