Robin Marie East, 64, of Milton, Florida, peacefully passed away on January 9, 2026, after a courageous battle with leukemia. She was born on February 23, 1961, in Youngstown, Ohio, to the late Robert and Gladys Raymond.

Robin was a devoted and hardworking mother who lovingly raised her son and three daughters on her own. Her strong work ethic and natural gift for serving others led her to a distinguished career at the Williamsburg Lodge in Colonial Williamsburg, where she advanced from the front desk to Head Concierge. In recognition of her exceptional hospitality,

Robin was welcomed as a member of Les Clefs d'Or USA and honored with the prestigious Pineapple Award.

In 1995, Robin met the love of her life, Christopher Knight East, in the lobby of the Williamsburg Lodge. They were married on March 22, 1997, and later made their home in Milton, Florida. Robin was a faithful member of Bagdad Methodist Church from 1999 onward. She loved Jesus with all her heart and lived her life sharing His love with everyone she met. Her faith was unwavering and evident in all she did.

Robin was preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Gladys Raymond.

She is survived by her beloved husband of 28 years, Chris East; her son, Nathan Raymond (Eboni); her daughters, Rachel East Reed (Brian), Nicole East Bryan (Josh), and Crystal East Almousa (Robert); her sister, Gina Cherry; 20 grandchildren; 8 great-grandchildren; and numerous bonus children and grandchildren whom she loved dearly.

The family extends heartfelt gratitude to all who cared for, loved, and prayed for Robin and her family throughout her journey. She was truly loved and will be deeply missed.
