Obituary published on Legacy.com by Evergreen Funeral Cremation and Reception - Columbus on Mar. 26, 2026.
Emma Robinson was born on December 26, 1933, in Columbus, Ohio, to Thomas and Etta Watson. She was one of seven children, growing up alongside her five brothers-Anthony, Arthur, Charles, Robert, and Richard-and her sister, Barbra.

Emma pursued her education at The Ohio State University and Columbus State University, later earning an associate degree in Social Work. A woman of many gifts, she devoted her life to her family as a homemaker while also expressing her creativity as an artist.

She was united in marriage to Dewey Robinson, and together they built a loving family. From this union were born two children, Toia and Kevin Robinson.

Emma was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Dewey Robinson; her brothers, Anthony, Arthur, Charles, Robert, and Richard; her sister, Barbra; her son-in-law, Jeff Flowers; and her grandson, Tyler Rankin.

She leaves to cherish her memory her daughter, Toia Flowers (Byron Rankin); her son, Kevin Robinson (Beverly Robinson); her grandchildren, Brian and Amber; four great-grandchildren; and a host of nieces and nephews.

Emma's life was a testament to love, resilience, and quiet strength. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.
