Robbie L. (Cotton) Edwards, aged 87, of Great Falls, Montana, peacefully passed away on December 31, 2025.

She was born on January 23, 1938, in Christian County, Kentucky, to Jewell Wallace Cotton and Sybil Ruth (Wells) Cotton.

Robbie was raised in Kentucky and later married Gaither Moore. Together, they traveled the world through military service before she eventually settled in Las Vegas, Nevada, in 1972.

Robbie was a strong, resilient, caring, and fiercely independent woman. She always spoke her mind and loved with her whole heart. She taught us all how to be bold, stand their ground, and how to love without limits. She enjoyed gambling, rock collecting, playing solitaire, gin rummy, and thrift shopping. Her door was always open when someone needed advice, a place to sleep, or just good company.

Robbie was preceded in death by her father, Jewell Cotton; mother, Sybil Cotton; sisters, Bonnie Mosley, Alice Zoff, Ola Marie Brooks, Ruby Parker, and Patricia Fay Cotton; brother, Curtis Cotton; sons, Gaither Ray Moore and Garrey Robin Moore; and grandchildren, Luke Moore and Tiffany Jones.

Robbie is survived by her sisters, Doris Moses, Sue Sanders, and Juanita Cotton; brothers, Bill Cotton and Jewell Cotton; daughters, Sybil Cotton, Juanita (Bill) Nitz, Amanda (David) Diaz, and Stacy (Jeff) Jones; sons, Chris (Maria) Moore and Kevin Moore; as well as many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
