Ralph Anthony Roberts

Ralph Anthony Roberts, 60, of Kingsport, TN, passed away on Sunday, September 14, 2025.

Ralph was a man of many talents, able to pick up and play nearly any instrument placed in his hands. His love for music was at the heart of who he was, bringing joy not only to himself but to those around him. He also enjoyed tending his garden-especially growing tomatoes-and could never pass up the chance to enjoy good food shared at family gatherings.

Known as a jack of all trades, Ralph had a strong will and an unshakable persistence that guided him through life. He had a big heart, loved everyone deeply, and gave generously of himself whenever he could. His Christian faith was central to his life, shaping his kindness, his giving spirit, and his steadfast character.

Always quick with a joke, Ralph had a wonderful sense of humor that could light up a room. He will be remembered for his music, his laughter, his unwavering faith, and the love he shared with family and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents, George & Betty Jo Roberts; his brother, Randall Roberts; his grandparents, Thomas & Oma, and Bess & McKinley Crawford.

Those left to cherish Ralph's memory are his daughter, Samantha Roberts, and husband, Dakota Sensabaugh; his grandchildren, Cienna, Cayden, and Cohen Sensabaugh, and Sierra Thacker, husband, Dylan, and their son, Emerson; his brothers, Rick Roberts, and wife, Kathy, & George Roberts, and wife, Cindy; his sister-in-law, Debbie Roberts; his confidant and loving companion, Karen Roberts; his longtime friends, Larry Lawson and Gary White; ex-wife, Tammy Roberts, and step-daughter, Shanda Johnson, her daughter, Abigail, and Shanda's husband, Randy.
