Mr. Robinson was my best teacher and he was a very good man, he was a solid strong man with integrity. He taught his students how to become men and to do the right thing. May GOD bless his family and school 27 will always remember Mr. Robinson. Former student Ken Winfield

Mrs. Robinson , Talia and Chip, I am sorry for your lost. He was a teacher and a second dad. I remember everyone thought my good grades was because he tried to hook me up with Chip. He bragged about him and all the time.. I wish I would have known sooner. My sympathies go out to the family. Former student Brandy Edwards

To the Robinson Family,
I am deeply saddened by this news. I had the honor of being on of Mr. Robinson's students at Hillary Park Academy. I am not only sad that he is no longer with us, but even more so that so many others will not have the chance for this man to change their lives the way he did mine. Not only as a teacher, but as a human being, Mr. Robinson was an execptional man. To this day, I use things that he taught me ("learning is repitition, repitition is learning"). I just want his family to know that he will be deeply missed, but always and forever remember.

To the Robinson Family,
Mr. Robinson was also my 7th and 8th grade teacher at Hillery Park in 1995 and 1996. He was such an amazing teacher and the reason I became a teacher myself. When I heard of his passing from the school "lotus notes", I was deeply saddened. My brother and I always talked about Mr Robinson and his "learning is repetition, repetition is learning" comment and how it always made us think. When ever I hear that I always think of Mr. Robinson. He was a wonderful teacher and will be missed by many!!! R.I.P Mr. Robinson, you will never be forgotten.

To the Robinson Family: I am deeply saddened by your loss. Mr. Robinson was my 7th and 8th grade social studies teacher at Hillery Park Academy from 1993-1995. He inspired me to go above and beyond. I took his words "learning is repetition, repetition is learning" with me all throughout my high school, college, and graduate school days. All of his students were so very blessed to have him in our lives. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May he rest in peace.

To Mr. Robinson's Family and all his Friends and to his Students. When i heard the news this morning, I can not tell how much my heart hurt....Mr. Robinson was my 7th Grade teacher at Hillery Park Academy, But he was so much more than a teacher, he was a Wonderful friend. He always made sure we were okay...if he could tell something was wrong he would do what he could to help us in any way he could. He made sure we worked hard on our school work. It was like he could see the potential we all had, even though sometimes we had a hard time seeing it.
I can still see him, sitting at his desk and ejoying listening to music, even singing sometimes. WE LOVED THAT!!!
I know that everyone says they had one of the Best Teachers Ever, But I did, and so did the people who had the pleasure of having him as a Teacher. He will be greatly missed, Im truly sad that I never Got a chance to tell him, what he meant to me. I will never forget what a wonderful teacher he was, I mean it's been 19 years and I still have not forgotten what a Wonderful teacher he was, and in my heart he'll stay Forever.
My heart goes out to a his Family, Friends and all his students!!!
I love u Mr. Robinson!!!! Thank u !!!

I am so sorry for your loss. Mr Robinson was mine and my husbands 7th and 8th grade social studies teacher at Hillery Park 1987 - 1989. He was a great teacher and always there to listen to us. He didnt put up with a lot of trouble and we always knew what was expected in his classroom.

To the Robinson Family,
Mr. Robinson was my 7th and 8th grade Social Studies Teacher at Hillary Park Academy in 1993 and 1994. He was a fantastic teacher and is one of the reasons that I became a teacher myself. I can remember many of the conversations that we had in the classroom and outside the classroom. He took an interest in me and came to see me play football when I was his student and even after when I went on to play at South Park High School.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Please know that Mr. Robinson touched many of his students through his amazing teaching.

Chuck was a friend to all of us at Hillery Park. His smile and enthusiasm for teaching were infectious. He will be missed by the teaching community. May his family know he was loved by many more than they will ever know. Rest in peace Mr. Robinson! God's peace to you all as you grieve his loss.
