Mena, Arkansas
Dorothy Florine Robertson, age 87, passed away on Thursday, March 20, 2025, at Peachtree Assisted Living in Mena, Arkansas. She was born on Saturday, July 17, 1937, in Roswell, New Mexico to William and Loma Estelle Campbell.
While in Oklahoma she married Thurman Dale Robertson on February 10, 1954. They had 3 daughters, Kathie, Linda, and Mona. Thurman and Dorothy lived in California until 1984, when they relocated to Arkansas and purchased a poultry farm in Hatfield. They raised chickens there until 1999, then spent several years traveling before settling down in Mena.
Dorothy had a passion for many things in life—gardening, crafts, and traveling, especially to Yuma in the winter, to name a few. But if you truly knew her, you’d know that two things stood out above all the rest: dancing and going to the casino. Dorothy and Thurman were the last ones on the dance floor at their grandkids' and great-grandkids' recent weddings, and they were also well-known for their frequent visits to the casinos.
Dorothy's greatest accomplishment in life was no doubt her family.
She is preceded in death by her parents; her loving husband of 70 years Thurman Robertson; one sister Jenny Fairchild, and one brother Billy Campbell
Dorothy is survived by three daughters and sons in law, Kathie and Bill Kiser of Hatfield, Linda and Jim Neasbitt of Yuma, Arizona, and Mona and Danny McConnell of Mena; One sister and brother-in-law, Carol and Robert Goin; grandchildren, CherAmi and Allen Long, Andria and Jody Miller, Haley and Kirk Holder, Jason and Nicole Neff, Aaron McConnell, and Abigail and Travis Denton; great grandchildren, Shelby Long, Chase and Betsy Long, Kelly and Samantha Miller, Preston and Spencer Miller, Aiden Holder, Brady Holder, Landry Holder, Chase and Vanessa Neff, Sophie Neff, and Miles Denton; great great grandchildren, Brody Long, Brock McCartney, Jocie Long, Wyatt Miller, and Kolter Miller; and a host of other relatives and friends.
