I was in band with Robin in high school and remember her great sense of humor, bubbly personality, and desire to always have fun. I hadn't thought of those times in many years. I am very sorry for your loss and will keep you all in my prayers.

Donna & Monkey I just saw Robin's notice in today's (Aug 17) Tribune and was just heart broken for you all. I wish I had known sooner. I called Clint to let him know too. We just want to let you know that our prayers are with you and your family. It is hard to except things like this and wonder why. Guess we will know the answers someday. We send our love to you all.

I remember Robin well. Went we to school together for years and she was always so sweet, positive and upbeat. It's hard to believe that she has passed at such a young age. I will keep her family in my thoughts and prayers. She will be greatly missed by all, but her sweet smile will live in our hearts forever.

I met Robin in elementary school, 1981 at Chapman. I was an awkward kid and she always had a way to make me smile and bring me out and into the group. Through the years she continued to be a sweet smiling face that always made those around her better for knowing her. God bless your family. I will miss her

So very sorry to hear about Robin, we went to Etowah together and were in Band together, she was such a fun loving person with a smile as bright as the sun. I will always remember the fun times we had on our senior trip to Panama City Beach. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

From time with her in home room over four years, I remember Robin as a very kind, happy person who sincerely loved music. I recall the day she was given the baton and allowed to direct the band at a public function for the first time; she was so stoic with the responsibility. This was far too soon, and I offer my condolences at your loss.

Robin and I were friends through middle school and high school. Her smile was contagious, and she was always cracking us up with her great sense of humor and her antics. I can't help but smile when I think of her. I'm praying for your family, especially for the comfort y'all need and that the love that so many of us have for Robin surrounds y'all, too.

Dear Donna, j.o. and family: Robin was so much a part of my life for so many years. We lost touch a few times and when we would see each other again it was always easy to catch up because Robin was always the same person...real, honest, loving, hard working, determined,driven,smart, and of course beautiful. She will be missed. Praying for you and your family.
