It is with great sorrow that I write this memorium. Robin and I met at BU our Freshman year of school. Our paths crossed by happenstance and I am forever greatful. Her love of music inspired me to listen to new and exciting artists. It was a joy to hear her share her vocal talents.
Robin's warm, caring, & vibrant personality was always welcoming. After our graduation, I would often call her up (last min.) and tell her I was passing through Newtown. I would always be offered a friendly respite, during which, she would share her newest craft projects.
We have lost a marvelous creative soul and my heart aches for her family and friends.

Dear Sprung family,
I am deeply distressed and stunned to learn of Robin’s passing. Robin and I met at BU. She was a very kind-hearted, sensitive, and thoughtful soul. All were welcomed and loved by her. The world has lost a true star. I will never forget you Robin. May you rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear of Robin's passing. We met at Boston University and were able to visit a few times after. I would always look forward to her e-mail with pictures of her rescued kitties or a panda halfway around the world. She was a wonderful woman, who will be missed but her spirit will live on. I will think of her every time I see a spiral and remember the world is full of infinite possibility...
My deepest condolences to her family.

I just heard of Robin's passing. On what would have been her 41st birthday, I wish her a very happy birthday on the other side. I was friends with her at Boston University and was profoundly impressed with her lust for life, her remarkable optimism, and her unwavering kindness. She was beyond lovely, she was just so loveable. Fare you well, my old friend. The voices of the angels just got their star diva. See you on the other side, dear Robin.

I was shocked to hear of Robin's passing... Joan, although we haven't stayed in touch for many years, my heart goes out to you. I always remember Robin's gentle spirit, kind heart and easy smile. My mother passed on 11 years ago now, and I think she and Robin are together laughing about old times. May Robin and the family she left behind find peace in the love they shared.

I was very sorry to read about your loss. I hope you can find comfort in the words found at Isa. 33:24 which say that soon no one will say 'I am sick.' You have my deepest sympathies.

Robin - I remember the day you came in to adopt our two bluepoint kittens - now Maya and Shay. You were over the moon with joy, and we were, watching you with them. I wish you peace, Robin. I loved our emails and seeing you in your Newtown home surrounded by beautiful siamese babies and your garden. Rest peacefully. Know that you were loved.

My heart is broken. Robin has been one of my dearest friends since elementary school. She had a gift for seeing the beauty in life, the zany in the ordinary, the music in the mundane. I love you and miss you, Robin. Thank you for the years of smiles and laughter.

I just want to say that I think of Robin as a fighter. She had the best attitude every day and thought the best of people every day. In addition, she was an incredibly supportive friend, funny, generous and truly kind-hearted. Love you Robin, and thanks for being a friend for 26 years.

My condolences to the Sprung family, I pray the tears fade away only to be replaced with smiles for the celebration of Robin's life. Remember the good things and don't forget to laugh! Robin your smile could brighten my day from miles away! I believe we got to know each other better after school than while in school together. Our chance meetings at Big Y and abroad were always good conversation as were our midnight chats online, I will miss that. Gods Speed Robin

There truly are no words to say how much Robin meant to Newtown. There were no strangers, only friends that Robin had not yet met. She will be greatly missed by a town that loved her.

Green bagels began our friendship. Dancing, laughter, music, art, cats, wondering about life and watching the flagpole are some of the wonderful memories that Robin bestowed to me. She had a deep love of her family and I am truly sorry for your loss.

My sympathies to the Sprung family. I've known Robin since third grade. I will always remember her writing "Robin Spring" on the top of her paper when spring would arrive, with a little flower to dot the i. Always a joyful soul, despite her physical struggles. I am grateful to have reconnected with her the past few years. Peace to you, Robin. You will be sorely missed.

We are all so sorry to hear about Robin. I remember talking to her a few years back when she had just been to a show; she was so excited and loved hearing the music live. It was fun to see her interact with Emily and Jennie. Roger, we hope things get easier during this difficult time.

I can't believe that Robin is gone. She has been my neighbor for several years. Everytime I would see her, she would always be so polite and caring. I will never ever forget her. To the Sprung Family, Robin was the best person ever. She always would cheer anyone up. No matter how down she was. Robin, You will be missed deeply by myself and my family. My deepest sympathy.
