Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Robinson. We met Dr Robinson under unfortunate circumstances at Toledo Hospital when our son was born, and subsequently passed away, 23 years ago. Dr. Robinson was instrumental in helping us get the genetic help and answers we needed, and saw to it that we had guidance from the NIH. If it weren

I trained at Akron Children's hospital from 1973-76. We had five incredible doctors in pathology, whether it was in lab medicine or tissue pathology. Haynes was one of them. He was preceded in death by Dr. Howard Nigel and Dr. Joseph Potter. He is survived by Dr. Marvin Platt and Dr. Dimitri Agamanolis.

You could not ask for a better team of doctors when it came to figuring out difficulty diagnoses. Haynes was very helpful and kind when it came to curbside consultations or...

I remember Dr. Robinson and the conversations we would have Ann's Place discussing science and his career in the field of Genetics. He was an awesome person to know.

My sincere sympathy to his family. My father's faith in Haynes over 60 years ago was well-deserved, as proven by Haynes' illustrious career.

We saw Dr. Robinson shortly after our son who has special needs was born. Dr. Robinson was such a kind and wonderful physician. He had such a caring heart. As new parents caring for a disabled child - meeting with Dr. Robinson helped us immensely. I will never forget him. He will surely be missed by so many...our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Dr. Robinson was such a wonderful, kind and intelligent person. He was an inspiration to so many and always willing to share his wealth of knowledge through teaching. He will forever be in our hearts and greatly missed.

It was such an honor and privilege to know and learn from Dr. Robinson. He would always have a smile for everyone. I knew the minute he walked into our NICU, our babies were in safe and loving hands. Thank you for your gift to the world Dr. Robinson, you made it a much better place.

I had the privilege of working with Dr Robinson for many years, which was to my great benefit. He was brilliant, kind, generous, warm and funny. This is a great loss for the children and families of northeast Ohio. Condolences to his family.

A kind and gentle presence, he will be missed by me and by many, many others. I very much valued Haynes' friendship.
