Nick Robinson Obituary

Nick Robinson

Nick Robinson, a beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away at the age of 81. He was known for his love of music, the outdoors, nature and animals.

He was a devoted husband to his late wife Anita; and a proud father to his daughter, Shannan Heinzle; and her family and to his late son, Sean. He is also survived by his sister, Jone; and his brother, Tom.

Nick enjoyed spending time on the water, boating and "dinking around" on the acreage. A talented musician, he played guitar and even performed in a band in his younger years. His love for music was matched only by his love for animals, particularly his Golden Retriever, Katie, who was a constant companion by his side.

A gathering to celebrate Nick's life will be held at a later date. Condolences can be sent to www.bmlfh.com Butherus, Maser & Love Funeral Home will be handling the arrangements.

I have wonderful memories of time spent with Nick at Lincoln High School. He was a handsome and talented guy! I remember that he sang in the Boys Octet -- he had a great voice! I was fortunate to have reconnected with him again during my last visit to Lincoln in December of 2023. Rest in peace, dear friend!
