Celia Roberson Morgan Fabre, 68, of Nederland, died Tuesday, December 13, 2016. She was born on March 1, 1948, in Fort Worth, to Bettie Lou White Roberson and Harold Dean Roberson.
Celia was a P.E. Aide at Lumberton Intermediate School, substitute teacher at Lumberton and Nederland school districts, and secretary at Nederland B.A. Ritter Senior Citizen Center, but her favorite job was raising her family. She loved spending time with her family, especially all of her grandkids. Mam-Maw was a one of a kind grandmother. She was always there to support her grandkids in everything they did. She was their #1 cheerleader. Mam-Maw was famous for her cheese toast, Hawaiian punch, and most importantly her red lipstick. Although they were quite busy keeping up with the grandchildren, they always found time to do what they love; travel.
