I’m so deeply sorry to hear about Robyn Peyton’s passing in 2010. I met Robyn in 1985 when I was 25 years old and Robyn was the Art Department Lead on the CBS drama, Babies Having Babies, my first television show as a writer/producer He was incredibly kind, talented and professional. Two years later in 1988, I asked Robin to be the Production Designer on another CBS drama, No Means No, also my first time directing... Having Robyn by my side gave me much comfort. I was blessed. As usual, Robyn did a fantastic job and delivered! The following year (1988), Robin and I worked together once again on a TNT movie, Nightbreaker, starring Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez Although we ran into each other a few times over the years, Nightbreaker was the last time we worked together and sadly we lost touch Life! I’ll always have warm thoughts and a great appreciation for Robyn, his character and integrity, and all the effort he gave when we worked together! Thank you my friend... You were very much loved. RIP!

I was just looking up Robin Peyton. I worked with him on Mighty Ducks 3. He was so generous and kind to me. I wanted to see him and tell him how much I appreciated that he gave me the amazing title of "assistant set decorator". I am so sad to see this. It has been nine years. I am too late to tell him. He was an amazingly generous and patient man. I loved working with him. I hope his family knows how much he was loved.

Robin was one of my best friends in Primary School. We were in the same year at Pembroke House School, Giligil, KENYA, from Fall 1958 to 1962.

Mostly, I remember him for his incredible artistic talent. Being incarcerated in a boarding school, with only sundays free, we developed a range of hobbies to keep us occupied. Robin and I painted our own Christmas cards to send to close friends and family. His were invariably awesome.

Over the years we lost contact, and while on a trip to California I hoped to re-establish communication, only to find out that, sadly, Robin had passed on.

Rest in peace, my friend. You will not be forgotten.
