Memories and Condolences

August 1, 2012

To Robin's family:

I had an opportunity to know your daughter for only a short time. She was a compassionate young woman who was gracefully dealing with what life presented to her.

I want her father to know that she spoke of the special bond that you shared when you were antiquing and looking for treasures at flea markets. To know that she appreciated the fine glassware speaks to her character. She could see beauty in what others would discard.

I am so sorry for your loss.

My prayers and thoughts are with Misha and the other Wees family members. I had the pleasure of working with Robin and Misha as concierges at the CenturyLink Center Omaha (Qwest Center). Robin always brought a smile to work for fellow staff members and guests. Through the years, I enjoyed hearing about her many achievements in school, etc. In recent years, if Robin were at the CenturyLink Center for an event, she would always stop by to say "Hi." I will miss her.

Words cannot convey my feelings for the Wees family's loss. When a young family member with so much promise leaves us, we ask why? We try to rationalize, and we seek solice from our faith in God. My heart aches for my cousin Dolores Wees and the Wees family.
