Trelma Laverne Robertson passed away in Rogers, Ark., on Nov. 1, 2025, at Innisfree Nursing Center.
She was born in Green’s Chapel, Ark., on Nov. 30, 1935, the daughter of Homer Huffman and Nola Huffman.
Laverne was a stay-at-home Mom who loved cooking, sewing, working in the yard, walking, and traveling with the family. She was a woman of great faith and longed to meet her Lord in the last several weeks of her life. When her grandchildren came along, she enjoyed having them for a week or two just to spoil them. She was an avid Elvis fan even before he became the biggest rock star in the music industry.
During her later years she was living with her son David and daughter-in-law Lisa for six months in Memphis and then to Rogers, Ark., to live with her daughter Anita. She remained with Anita until she entered the nursing home in Rogers.
Laverne was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Ray Robertson; her parents, Homer Huffman and Nola Shelton; sister Carolyn Cook, and granddaughter, Jenny Rausch.
She is survived by her daughter Anita and husband Earl Rausch, son David Robertson and wife Lisa, brother Harvey Huffman, grandchildren Lisa Rausch and husband Bertram Lyons, Frank Robertson and wife Kellyn, David Lee Robertson and wife Dena, and great-grandchildren, along with many nieces and nephews.
Graveside funeral service for Mrs. Robertson will be held at 10:30 a.m., Thursday, Nov. 6, 2025, at Green’s Chapel Cemetery, with Rev. Bobby Neal officiating under the direction of Wilkerson Funeral Home in De Queen.
