Robin Engquist Obituary
Shrewsbury - Robin Lee Engquist, 56, passed away to be met by her father, Clifford A. Engquist Sr., and loving brother Clifford A. "Skipper" Engquist, Jr., Thursday, January 3, 2013 in St. Vincent Hospital. Robin was a graduate of Shrewsbury High School class of 1976.
She is survived by her beloved daughter and best friend, Jennifer L. Engquist; mother, Dorothea J. Engquist; loving sister, Danielle E. Orlando; brother, Jonathan Engquist and his wife Elizabeth, as well as nieces Lauren and Lily. She was preceded in death by her brother-in-law, Gary Orlando.
Robin had struggled with several health issues since childhood. She faced these obstacles with strength and without complaint. She enjoyed travel and "IceCat" Hockey with her daughter, league bowling, and had an uncanny ability to solve the most challenging puzzles. She will be greatly missed. Services will be private, and at the convenience of the family. HENRY-DIRSA FUNERAL HOME, 33 Ward St., is assisting the family with service arrangements.
