Jeffrey Robinson Obituary
Jeffrey Robinson was a soft-spoken "everyday guy," said his wife, Millicent, but he had a well- developed ear and a passion for jazz. His wife said that the people who worked with him quickly learned that he was the fellow to call if you needed a new tweeter.
He also had a "guy" hobby that amused his wife: racing miniature model cars. "They were like big kids," Ms. Robinson said of her husband and his racing buddies. "It was like they didn't get train sets when they were little."
But Mr. Robinson, a systems analyst, had four children of his own and wanted easy commuting. When he started working at Marsh & McLennan, his office was in Princeton, N.J., only 10 minutes from his home in South Brunswick. In February, however, his group was transferred to the World Trade Center, lengthening his travel time to an hour and a half or more.
On Sept. 11, Mr. Robinson told his wife he had stayed up until 1 a.m. listening to a Billie Holliday anthology and overslept. Skipping his morning jog, he raced for the train station. "He was running out of the house like a madman," she said.

You are remembered always my friend...every day when I come to work I see the fountain, knowing you are sadly a part of it. But it also allows me to share a little bit about you with my son, my coworkers & our customers. That, always makes me smile.

Thinking of you & your loved ones as I do often. I still remember how your smile lit up the halls in High School & how every word you spoke was filled with such kindness. The world is a less friendly place without you in it.

I remember when we got together for lunch and how you valued your family and preferred your country lifestyle over NYC.I felt there was alot of good I could learn from you.Sorry for breaking your diet(smile) and when we get together again lunch will be on me.

I only knew you a few months at First Union in North Brunswick where we both worked part-time. You always had a smile on your face and seemed very friendly with everyone. I am only sorry I did not take the time to get to know you. Always rushing in and rushing to get home to get some sleep. You never knew that we had sons in the same grade and same school.
My prayers go out to your wife, children, all family members and your friends.
I hope you are at peace.

We are very sorry for your loss of Jeffrey. May his life and love live on through his children. Our hearts cry with you.
America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
