Sylvia Robinson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Throughout her life, Sylvia was loved by all who knew her. She had a great sense of humor, was an excellent musician, and loved singing praises with her banjo. She enjoyed fishing and traveling with her husband, playing cards with her family and friends, worshiping with her family and friends at Church and watching the antics of her three cats. Her laughter and song will be very missed.
Sylvia is survived by her husband of 34 years, William "Bill" Robinson, her stepsons, Jonathan Robinson of Florida, Kris Robinson and partner Kim of Montana, Erik Robinson of New Hampshire, a brother and sister-in-law James and Diane Lafountain of Florida, a granddaughter, Kimberly (Justin) Degon of New York, two grandsons, Robert Gifford of New York, Isaac (Afaf) Gifford of Vermont and a step-granddaughter, Jessica Rivers of Florida, as well as five great-grandchildren, several nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
She was pre deceased by her parents, Clayton and Edith (Miller) Lafountain, her brother Charles (Shirley) Lafountain, sister Millicent (Charles) Crump, and her beloved daughter, Crystal, who are all waiting joyously in heaven to receive her.
A small service will be held at Christ's Community Church, 2623 Vasco Street

she was a beautiful lady she loved everyone even the people who hurt her , she will never be replaced none out there can match her she was the very best, i remember when we was young she ,d go on a date and bring me , we were close her and i i always helped her with work on her auto, and her home i never charged her cause she was family, i used to play guitar while she played banjo , she would write a song then come over and say i wrote a song i would play the tune she was surprised , well i know her husband will be lost without her but he will have to bare it , just remember to toke your time think about the problem and think what would sylvia do , if you think hard enough she will tell you how to fix it, don,t loose hope , i know god knows all . later sylvia i will see you in heaven someday save me a seat. amen love you sister sylvia,
