I'm so sorry to hear of Robin's sudden passing. She was always someone I could count on to make me smile during high school. She had a fantastic sense of humor, a big heart, and a beautiful smile. May her memories bring you comfort at this very sad time.

My deepiest sympathy to Robin her husband son and most of all the Elsey family. I will never forget all the wonderful memories growing up with Robin Michelle and Justin. The trips to tahoe the neighbor hood gatherings the many laughs and so much more. Robin always treated me like a sister when I was so young took me under her wing along with Michelle. I will always have a special place in my heart for her and the Elsey family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you always. I love you all and will miss Robin very much and just as much as I miss you Shirley Alan and Justin. Love and Sympathy, Christine Tournahu Rohnert Park

Shirley, Alan and Family, I'm so very sorry to hear about Robin. Mike reminded me of all the times she would bake him brownies and bring them over to the house. We had great times together with all of you and wanted you to know how much we are thinking of you. Love always, The Tournahu Family.
