Roberta Margaret Reddick
In
1976, the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives was
formed. Although not Founding members of NOBLE, both Roberta Reddick
and husband Albert Reddick were Charter Members of the organization. In
1985, both “Mom” and “Pop” Reddick began the Southern California Chapter
of NOBLE which was incorporated in 1987 and the rest is history!
In
a 2019, interview with the Los Angeles Sentinel, she shared this career
and life philosophy: “Remember that there are possibilities. Set your
goals and trust in God. Have faith that God knows what is best for you.
It may not be what you believe, it may not come when you want it, but it
will come. Trust in God.”
Roberta
Reddick leaves behind a legacy of service, wisdom, and faith. Her
legacy will continue to live on through the countless number of people,
rank and file she helped and mentored. The lives she impacted, and
perhaps most significantly, through the knowledge she planted in those
of us who were blessed to have known her.
Roberta
Reddick is survived by family members: daughter Judith Morrison, 3
granddaughters and 3 grandsons, her NOBLE family, and a host of family,
friends, and colleagues. She will be dearly missed.
Rest in Peace Queen Mother!
The
Family has advised that they are tentatively looking to have a
celebration of life for "Mom" Reddick on February 5, 2022. There will be
additional information provided as it becomes available.
