Marc Robinson Obituary

Marc Christopher Robinson, 59, of Church Road, Va., died on Wednesday, July 8, 2009.

Though he fought a courageous battle with Huntington's Chorea, he died peacefully in his sleep at home. He was the son of the late Willis A. and Lillian Evelyn Bowman Robinson. Marc worked hard his whole life and was a member of Local #10 Plumbers and Pipefitters Union. Marc loved to race and drove both drag racers and muscle cars. Though he loved his racing days, he was whole heartedly a family man.

He is survived by his wife, Karin Robinson; daughter, Breyanna Robinson; son, Jacob Martin; sister, Alana Cole; niece, Shannon Dennis; and nephew, Brian Cole.

A graveside service will be held at 2 p.m. on Friday, July 10, 2009, at Blandford Cemetery. The family is being served by the Petersburg Chapel of J.T. Morriss & Son Funeral Home & Cremation Service where condolences may be registered at www.jtmorriss.com.

How saddened we were to read about Marc's death. He was a high school classmate of ours. We remember him as a swell guy! We wish we had known of his illness so we could have visited and shared some old memories. The class of '68 will all miss him. Our prayers go out to you and your family.
