Dr. Newkumet was an extraordinary teacher, and the foreign language department at LMHS was without parallel. I´m so grateful to have benefited from her tutelage and to have known her as a person.

I was in her French class at Lower Merion 60 years ago, and she was an inspiration I never forgot. I went on to spend my junior year of college in France, and for the past 15 years I take a weekly French class. Condolences to her family and friends.

Robyn taught me so very much about teaching. For my entire career at Harriton, I used techniques that I had learned with her. She was the one person that I wanted to emulate. A wonderful woman who touched so many lives.

Je suis très triste d'apprendre la mort de Robyn. C'était une femme charmante. Nous ne nous étions hélas pas rencontrée mais avions beaucoup échangé avec Darla et elle pour traduire mes poèmes. Toutes mes condoléances à sa famille et à ses amis. Chantal Dupuy-Dunier
