Robin was a loving grandmother, mother, and sister. Robin was a lung cancer survivor and
proud to call herself the shortest but loudest voice in the room. Robin loved the mountains,
watching the stars and the sunsets, and chasing lighthouses. She enjoyed doing anything and
everything as long as she was surrounded by her family. Her laughter filled the room and
infected those around her. She will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved her most,
and her family knows she will have all the sweet tea she could ever want in Heaven.
