Mr. Robbins was an inspirational math teacher at Princess Anne High School in Virginia Beach. I had him for 8th grade math and all of us celebrating our 55th Reunion from graduating at PA will remember him very fondly and with respect tonight as well as we go through the rest of our lives. Rest in peace and I feel God has blessed us to have known him.
