Robby V. Collins

I am sorry that I missed Robby Collins' celebration of life and did not personally give condolences to his family. Everyone in the Dallas school district knew Robbie because at one time or another, Robbie helped us understand, do, think, or act on a matter important to us and the children of the district. When I was relatively new to Dallas and Texas educational politics, I traveled to Austin where I was properly educated in how to win friends and influence others. I remember principals...

Prayers and love from the Hardt Family to Paige, Brenda, and the Collins Family.

Words from a Randy Travis song come to mind about Robby: It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you; it's what you leave behind you when you go! Robby Collins cast a giant shadow. His legacy rests well in the hearts and minds of his family, his students, his fellow teachers, the many administrators he was associated with during a long and well lived life. I can not remember him without that "I've got a secret, smile on his face", the grin that seemed permanently ingrained....

A great teacher will make you feel that what you have to say is important. They will not belittle you for not knowing something, because they know they are there to teach you

Robby Collins led his life in service to others, especially to the children and staff at Dallas ISD. He led remarkably, and through him, many lessons were shared and learned. He earned the blessings of sweet rest. As he sleeps in Perfect Peace, may his family, friends and colleagues find comfort.

I had the honor and pleasure of working and learning from him. Prayers for all his family. May God wrap his arms around you all.

Mr. Collins was my favorite history teacher. I must have been one of his first students at W.W.Samuel. He had the cutest smile and all of the girls had a crush on him. He truly blessed the Texas school system. My sympathies To his family.

Robby was one of the finest people I have ever known. I learned so much from him. My condolences to his family and friends. He will never be forgotten.

Condolences & Piece to Mr. Collins Family
