Dear Robin,
So sorry I got word late of your passing. I remember you fondly for the time you stayed under our roof while attending BYU and before you married Craig. I remember your laugh (much like Emily's), stories of your mission to Italy, and visits with my parents right after Dustin was born.
Thanks for putting up with an obnoxious younger cousin. Enjoy your rest, give my love to Aunt Eleanor and Uncle Les, and I hope you get to catch up with Dallas and Lorna.
Much love!,
-Bill
Dearest Robin,
Our family was not able to fully take part in your special "graduation day" because of our exposure to the Coronavirus. However, we were grateful to watch the service live from our homes. Dustin gave a wonderful and heartfelt tribute to you as a mother of faith. Katy, Zoe, Tess, and Joeli provided beautiful and comforting music. Candace and Sherisa shared many details of your life as the oldest of ten children, your enduring faith, and your service to others. Julie read an original poem about her mother inspired by sitting at your bedside in the final days. Your sons-in-law, Bill and Rich, gave moving prayers. You truly have a family to be proud of and one that loves you very much.
The memorial service was a celebration of your life by a wonderful and devoted family. Craig was an amazing and valiant caregiver during your many years of struggle. He proved his love and devotion to you in so many ways. Sister Robin, I will always remember your kindness to me and your occasional burst of laughter when Craig and I teased one another. Your never-ending faith and courage during the great trial you suffered was an example to all of us. We know you are now free from your worn-out body and at rest and peace with loved ones who have also passed through the veil. We rejoice in the Atonement and Resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, who made eternal life possible for us all. We look forward to seeing you again soon. All our love. Ron and Marlene
Robin was the ultimate loving, caring, happy, and fun grandmother. She instigated family traditions like getting together monthly to celebrate birthdays and making the best lasagna around. I love the picture of Robin on this obituary. She looks joyful and a tad mischievous. I know she is in a better place now and out of the pain she experienced the last few years. Robin loved her family dearly, and she will be missed by everyone who knew her. Truly a great woman. I send my love to all her family members. Pat Huff
Robin always took care of Sherisa’s friend group at Wasatch High and Southern Utah University. She always had food, snacks, a napping location and listening ear. She brought peace through the craziness of growing up, often. I remember her always being concerned for each of us and individually connecting to me. I personally was influenced by her Christ-like love and the example of adoration for her children and grandchildren. She always seemed to show up at the right time to lend a helping hand and/or bring a meal. I will always be grateful for her happiness, joy, laugh, her ability to shop and her amazing smile. Thank you Robin for raising a beautiful family, especially my bestie, Sherisa. I will forever be grateful to have had you in my life. Love Always- Kris Golightly-Thacker
