Wasco and Orangeville, until they moved to Lake Tahoe. Robin completed the majority of her school years there, enjoying the lake in the summer and skiing in the winter. When her family moved to Ronan, she finished her last two years of high school, participating in choir and cheer leading.

After her high school graduation Robin married Rick Jennison and they moved to Virginia and then California, returning to Ronan for the birth of her first son Robert. Three years later the birth of her second son Rich. During that time, she was a Lamaze instructor and was able to assist and encourage many women during their childbirth experience. Later as a single mother she started pursuing her dream of becoming a registered nurse. Through her hard work and perseverance she completed her degree and was awarded her nursing pin. She was very proud of her accomplishments.

After this graduation she married again. Robin moved with her sons and husband to Wisconsin where she worked in

different hospitals until the family moved to Madison where she worked as a nurse at a Level 1 Trauma Center. The work was intense but she excelled. She later became a traveling nurse which allowed her the freedom to visit Montana and help at times with her mother's care.

When Robin retired, she moved back to Montana where she had property and built a home in Plains where she lived until

recently. Robin was a gifted lifetime learner. She loved to read constantly and attended many conferences and seminars in pursuit of her next goal of becoming a Naturopathic Physician. She loved her sons, as well as music, art and was an accomplished photographer. She loved design, sewing, cooking and baking and had many other artistic pursuits.
