I worked with Robin many years ago, and am saddened by this news. My thoughts and sympathies are with her family, of whom she always spoke with such pride and affection. I always thought she was a very special person.

For my sister:
The sun still shines but it seems a little less bright.
Time still passes but it goes more slowly.
We move about but without prupose.
Your passing has left a hole in our lives that will never be filled.
We cherish our memories of your love, your brilliance, your generosity.
You will be with us always.
