Robin "Rocky" Depping

I met Robin in early 1990 when we became roommates at the house on Karnes Blvd. I was 21 and she was 34. I was quite intimidated by her at first…but she soon took me under her wing and became like a big sister to me. I didn’t have a car, and without reservation, she let me tag along with her everywhere. I remember meeting Lora for the first time when we all met for tacos at a Mexican restaurant on Broadway.

In 1994, Robin and I shared a home at 43rd & Belleview. I can’t drive...

**I have revised this to not include profanity, as it cannot be posted with inappropriate language. So, if you can't picture Robin saying something, put in the inappropriate word and the picture will be complete**

Robin was the second woman I met on my recovery journey, as she was my grandsponsor. The first time I met her, I remember my sponsor pointing her out as we walked across the room. I was thinking, "Wow! Look at all that crazy hair, she's beautiful!" She got up and met...

Robin was a true friend and i will greatly miss her. I have never known anyone with as much energy and strength as Robin.

Robin was my wonderful "buddy" and roommate during the eighties. She and the bassett hound "Rocky" kept me laughing all the time. Robin was so giving of herself - she would give to you first and worry about herself last. You don't find many friendships like that.

God looked down and saw her tired eyes, and asked her to come home. He knew she would not get better on earth again, so he made a place in his garden just for her.

May the Lord bless and give peace to...

The fellowship has lost a valuable member and friend. Your legacy will live on through the years as the women you helped grow and help others. Your roots were strong and your tree will live forever.

Robin ...My Sweet Sweet Sister, my Best Friend and Hero for 43 years. Robin and I met at her 6th Birthday Party on Outlook in 1962, I was playing on the playground down the hill from our prospective houses by myself, she saw me down there by myself and asked me my name and told me it was her 6th Birthday and if I wanted to have some Birthday Cake, she smiled real big and all those fine golden curls that shined in the sunlight, she looked like a little Angel. Little did I know at that time...

I have many memories of Robin, but when I sat down this morning with the pictures I have of her....it is her smile, her beauty, her humor, her strong spirit and her way of making everyone feel better just by being there that I remember the most. Almost ten years ago she told me to "Believe"....I promise I'll never stop believing Robin. I love you and believe you're on your way home to a better place.

I wish to express my condolences to the family. I know this is is a difficult time for you. I know that we will keep Robins spirit alive in here is KC. She has touched so many of us. I will never forget her. I will cherish my memories we had together painting my castle wall in my tiny basement. She really helped to awaken that creative spirit that was deep inside me, and I am truely grateful for that. And I will continue to keep working on that creative energy and keep it alive in me in...

I hope to see you again someday. Thanks for being such a strong woman in recovery. I admired you greatly.
