Ronald J. Robinson

Ron was a good boss. He cared about his employees. He was fair and I remember him laughing so hard at something said by another employee. God rest his soul.

To The Robinson Family:

My deepest condolences to you in your loss of Ron. Ron interviewed me for my first job out of graduate school as a research associate at the Getty Research Center. I worked at the research center for nearly 3 years while Ron was there. I remember him as being friendly and supportive and he was very helpful in the beginning stages of my career at the center.

Again, my most sincere and deepest sympathies to you.

Ron was an inspiration to many -- including me. I often remember his encouragement.

I am very saddened learning of Ron’s passing. My condolences to Bonnie and his children. I was a secretary at Getty and then Texaco Research Center for 6 yrs. Ron was not only a great boss but he was a good friend. As a boss, he not only guided me in my career but he also made sure I was treated with respect and fairness. As a friend, he was available to discuss any problems I had on the job and had a great sense of humor. He encouraged you to work hard but we laughed a lot too. Some...

To Doris and Jim,
My deepest sympathy to you in the loss of one of our family members. I will always remember the fun times we had at Grandma and Grandpa Baker's house when you and the kids would come down from Pueblo.
I will be in touch once I know you are back in Colorado Springs.
Aunt Melba, Kate and Ashley

I am very saddened with the news of Ron's death and would like to express to Bonnie and the boys that you'll have my deepest sympathy. After my departure from Texaco in 2001 along with Ron, we remained in contact and he was always a great guy too me. What I admired about him most was his ability to bring out the best in people and the ease at which you could approach him. He helped me in my oil and gas career greatly and I'll never forget some of the things he personally did to enhance my...

We are saddened in Ron’s passing and would like to express our deepest sympathy. Ron was very progressive in his thinking, transforming Texaco’s Exploration and Production Technology Department at the end of 1994 into a 'matrix' organization. Although some folks had a tough time, it helped people to change, to better themselves and to understand the new work environment. People learned to develop and market their skills, to network, to become more valuable employees and to prepare...

Ron was a great boss and a great friend. We had lots of fun on the Russia project! I started working for Ron at the lowest point of my Texaco career and out of those ashes rose a great Phoenix in the form of the Russia Project. We made history in that project and had a lot of fun doing so in Washington DC and in Moscow. Ron will always be a special person in my life and will be missed. Marcia and I last ran into Ron and Bonnie in a shopping center and we had a lot of fun recalling the old...
