Obituary For Mr. Claudell Faith Robertson

Claudell Faith Robertson, 62, passed away on September 15, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of faith, family, and quiet strength. Born in Waycross, Georgia, Claudell spent his youth growing up in Miami, Florida, before moving north to attend Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois. A gifted athlete, he proudly played college football for the Wildcats. Throughout his life, his journey also took him to Tennessee and back to Georgia, where he spent his final years.

Claudell dedicated the majority of his career to education, shaping the minds and futures of countless students. He was equally devoted to his faith, serving actively as a deacon in the various church fellowships he called home over the years. An avid sports fan, he loved both playing and watching sports, maintaining a lifelong passion for football and basketball. While he was soft-spoken most of the time, Claudell carried himself with a great presence and confidence that commanded respect and inspired those around him.

He is survived by his beloved mother, Ruby Lee Shaw; his sons, Claudell F. Robertson Jr. (CJ) and his wife Molly, and Eli White; his cherished granddaughter, Adeline Grace; and a large, loving family of aunts, uncles, and cousins. Public viewing will be held on Friday, September 18, from 5:00 PM til 7:00 PM.

A visitation will be held Saturday, September 19, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, immediately followed by a memorial service starting at 1:00 PM at Scott & Roberts Mortuary Inc in Valdosta, Georgia.

My condolences to the Robertson family. Claudell will be missed by all that knew him. The Lord's light shined bright through him, by the way he spoke and by the way he carried himself. I can see that smile of his as he is greeted by the Lord and told "Well done good and faithful servant" Matthew 25:23. Thoughts and prayers from my family to yours.

A leader among men, having the pleasure to play semi pro Football on the Chicago Chargers with Claude. Before that I had the pleasure of seeing him play with Northwestern, not knowing I would have a chance to get to play and get to know him. Always positive and to the point. It felt like he was always thinking about, God, Family, and Football some nights. It was in a different order. Thank you for a deep conversations and putting things in perspective. Number 1, you are truly missed my condolences & prayers to your family and hope that we will all be together again and the chance to-play catch.

To the family of Rev Claudell Robertson, we the members of Turn Church Tulsa OK send our prayers and condolences to you. As a brother in ministry at New Jerusalem Five Fold Ministry where our Pastor was Katherine Minor Walker enjoyed ministering together, often talking Bible and football. We grieve the loss of a faithful brother, servant, and soldier in the ministry. His voice may be silent, but his witness, his work, and his legacy will continue to speak. We thank God for the life he lived, the souls he touched, and the Kingdom work he faithfully carried out. His race is finished. His faith has become sight. His labor was not in vain.
