To Jim and family. As I reminisce over the years , I am remembering all the fun at family gatherings. Rosie was sometimes the quiet one, often overwhelmed by all the Robinson hoopla. It was hard for anyone else to get a word in edgewise. Rosie would bide her time and then come out with some dry wit that would crack us all up. She was established in her own rite as an educator and clinician in children´s ministry but loved being in ministry with you.She was a great wife for you and a great mother. She loved you so much and she adored her kids. When they would say something that would turn her face red, she would just shake her head and roll her eyes.
She loved to tell the story about marrying you for your money. She had seen a picture of you with our neighbor´s beautiful brick home in the background. Our home was much more modest, but she decided we must have money because she thought that was our house. She loved telling that story and we loved hearing it. She was a kind, gentle soul but with a strong voice when she needed it. Thank you Rosie, for being a part of our family and loving our brother so dearly. We will miss you. God bless you all.
