It has been my honor to care for her over the past several years. She will be missed!!! Joni, RN

Jeff, I'm so sorry to hear of Robyn's passing. She was such a warm, funny girl; I enjoyed her so much when I saw her at Becky's lunches and parties. You and your family are in my prayers.

Jeff and Robyn's family -- The memorial service for Robyn was the most beautiful one that I have witnessed. Truly a celebration of the beauty, love, and strength that shined forth from Robyn. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Jeff, our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Robyn's lively and demeanor and beautiful smile were a blessing to everyone around her. I am grateful that I was able to be a small part of her dancing while she was with us. Truly, this world is made poorer, and heaven richer with her passing. She will be missed.

Robyn was an angel here on earth. Her smiles, gentle understanding, helpfulness, and perserverance were a natural part of her essence. Her mark in this world will live long in each of us who knew her. Jeff, please know that you and your family are in our prayers.

My thoughts and prayers to Robyns family. I have known Robyn since we were kids. We lost touch for awhile, but have kept in contact between my battle and her battle with BC. She has always had a fierce light in those beautiful eyes. She will be greatly missed,and I know she's walking those GOLDEN STREETS OF GLORY.

Robyn and I grew up in the same neighborhood. We shared many childhood memories--the same first name, fun times at Cleveland Elementary School, our role as kindergarten aides when we were in 8th grade, hanging out at each other's houses, listening to country music (she opened my 13-year-old mind by teaching an Elton John and Beach Boys fan to appreciate Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette and Johnny Cash). Robyn was an inspiration. Several years ago we rekindled our friendship, and I am so grateful for I am a richer person for having been touched by such a gracious, caring, compassionate woman. I miss her.

Ann, Michelle, Jeff, Ashley, Melanie and Stuart, our love and sympathies are with all of you. You know how very lucky I feel to have met, loved, worked with and been the friend of Robyn for these wonderful 24 years. She was my dear and priceless friend and I am so much richer for having known her. I will miss our beach and Gatlingburg vacations, our lunches and dinners and our love of wine (although I will always smile at her love of the 'sweet' wine) and will love and miss her forever.
Our love,
Becky and Faye

Jeff, I am so sorry that Robyn's bright light has moved from our world to that big ballroom in the sky. I have known both of you all of my 21 plus years at LexisNexis (although I think I went through a short time not realizing you were married to each other). Robyn was a incredible strong, funny, madly organized (she wasn't called Sales Meeting Diva for nothing) woman with a beautiful spirit and a gusto for life and laugter. I am inspired by her and if I can live my life with a touch of the passion and courage she lived hers with, I will be so much better for it. No words can take away your tremendous loss but know that there are many in all circles that are sending you love and prayers now, from across the country.

Aunt Mae, I got to know Robyn during Dave Gross' illness three years ago. I immediately knew we would become friends..I followed her blog and knew how strong she was with her battle of this insidious disease...God bless you and your family..I never had the pleasure to meet Jeff, but my sympathies are with him as well as my prayers.

I can't begin to tell you how hard Robyn's passing has hit me, we were cousins but because of our age difference we were never really close but we had the BC monster in common and she was a wonderful source of inspiration for me, she gave me advise and because of her I am heading to NOLA next week. Her dad was one of my favorite uncles and was always there when my daughter was fighting leukemia. I am tearing up writing this, she will be greatly missed, my prayers are with you all.

Jeff, my heart is with you at this time. I am most encouraged by Robyn's fight with her breast cancer. She was tough enough to wear pink, my friend! It will be my honor to put her name on my back at the Dallas Komen race in October and remember her most fondly in the days to come. Much love to you and your families! Phil 4:6

Jeff,
We are so deeply sorry about Robyn. We can only guess how devastated you are and your family with how hard she struggled. It looks like the angels are going to have a good Samba instructor! Just wanted you to know we were thinking about you.

Jeff and Robyn's family and friends -- I was very sad to her that Robyn has passed away. We worked together over 20 years ago at LEXIS/NEXIS, and the memory of her smile lighting up the room is still with me. In the brief time I had the privilege of acting as her manager, my biggest challenge was keeping her busy. With her energy and enthusiasm, she whipped through every assignment in far less time that I expected. It sounds like she was a dynamo to the very end, and an inspiration to all who were lucky enough to know her.

Jeff, I just read that Robyn has passed away. It was such a pleasure to meet both of you in NOLA last year---she was a gorgeous, courageous lady and yes, a Diva! Just wanted to express my deepest condolences to you and your family. I know that Robyn is with her Lord now.

Jeff, Anna Mae, Michelle and family - At this most difficult time Brooke and I are thinking of you all. Robyn had an infectious laugh and the few times I was with her it was easy to see her joy for life. Stuart kept me updated on her condition and I was truly inspired by her courage and strength. She has found peace and our prayers go to her loved ones during this moment of their journey on Earth.

Jeff, I remember Robyn and you well. Two memories stand out, both filled with joy and anticipation, one is the day you told us you were getting married and the other is when you described the house you had bought. I read Robyn's "diva" jounal and you can see she fought the good fight. I wish you the best during this crazy and sad time.

Jeff, you are in our thoughts and prayers during tihs most difficult time. Robyn will forever be in our memory. Everytime I dance the Samba, I will think of her. She was for sure the "Samba Queen". Her beautiful smile and quick wit will be missed by all.

I am so saddened to hear of Robyn's passing. When I came to LexisNexis 11 years ago, Robyn was incredibly helpful and kind. She showed me the ropes and "took me under her wing" and I will never forget her professionalism. And she was a blast! Some of my best memories are working on projects with Robyn. We shared many conversations about our cats, too. I took in a mother cat and her kittens a few months ago and thought of Robyn and her kitten rescue efforts. So sad to hear this news.

Robyn and I made up Rowdy Row in the Chemo room at Dayton Physicians, then were roomies for Noble Sister (much to our surprise). It was always such fun to be with her and as we shared the same off-beat sense of humor, often it only needed a look from one or the other of us to send us into giggles. My love and support go to Anna and Jeff. Noble Circle group 15 and I are there for you. Lisa

Jeff and Robyn's family - We will keep you all in our prayers. Robyn always spoke lovingly of you and truly felt your love for her. Your ongoing support and laughter enabled Robyn to live every day to its full potential. I will miss my friend but remember with a smile the happy times we shared together. With heartfelt sympathy,

Jeff, Anna, Michelle and Family - Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. I have many wonderful years and memories with Robyn at LexisNexis. She was a true Diva and her legacy will live on. She was such an incredible person and friend. I have no doubt she is dancing the streets of gold (to some Dolly Parton music, of course!) with NO pain. I am so sorry that we won't be able to be at her services as we will be out of town. With love and sympathy, Vicki, Dave, Bret and Lindsay Wallace

I was always happy to see Robyn when I came to Dayton or we saw each other at a meeting. She was warm and helpful and always willing to lend a hand. She did a great job at the sales meetings and was there if you needed anything. I was reading her blog a while ago and thought she beat this thing. So sad to hear this terrible news. She will be missed.

Robyn and I have worked at LexisNexis the same amount of time and we first met when I worked in the DC office. She in sales and me in Office Admin. She would call me with the strangest requests, once about 20 years ago, she called in a panic, "Deb, we have to get someone overseas next week and they don't have a passport. What do we do". I said, "send me the passport application and we'll walk over to the passport office, stand in line and get the passport and overnight it to you." From there we were lifetime problem solvers...together we could fix anything. And we did, quite often! When I moved to Dayton I'd stop by her office and we would talk about dancing and she talked me into going to Golden City Ballroom...I was hooked! We'd see each other at practice more than work and as her battle with cancer started she became my Hero! Her great attitude, her great smile, her great "nothing can stop me" sparkle that lit up a room everywhere she went no matter how badly she must have felt always inspired everyone around her. I told her she was my hero and I loved her but never enough. She touched people and hearts with her life and she will never be forgotten. Thank you,Robyn for touching my life.
