Dwight W. Roberts

Dwight W. Roberts, 80, a cherished husband, father, grandfather, and brother, passed away peacefully at Johnson City Medical Center on September 22, 2025. Born on October 24, 1944, in Kingsport, Tennessee, Dwight was the son of the late James Paul and Euna Turner Roberts, Sr.

He is survived by his loving wife, Phyllis Norton Roberts; his son, Travis Scott Roberts; his daughter, Linsey Brooke Tucker; his siblings, Linda Kitzmiller, Paulette Everroad, Joyce “Diana” Roberts, and David Roberts; and his grandchildren, Conner Roberts, Claire Roberts, and Maryn Tucker.

In addition to his parents, Dwight was preceded in death by his sons, Colton Thomas Roberts and Chad Anthony Roberts; his siblings, James Paul Roberts, Jr., Arthur Stanley Roberts, Marian Cecelia Blalock, and Hugh Kener “Kenny” Roberts.

Dwight, a proud graduate of Holston High School class of 1963, went on to make a mark on his community through his diligent work at a box factory in Colonial Heights and later, as a valued member of the Eastman Chemical Company team, from where he retired. His commitment to excellence and tireless work ethic left a lasting legacy in his professional life.

Aside from his professional pursuits, Dwight was a man of the Methodist faith. His love for fishing, photography, and metal detecting were more than hobbies; they were reflections of his love for life and the simple joys that make every day a gift.
