  1. She was my dearest friend. My confidant, my port in any storm. Always there with good advise and a laugh. So many happy memories. So many 2+ hour phone conversations. So much I will miss.

  2. I worked closely with Robyn at Key Elementary School. We had a classroom of students with severe learning and behavioral disorders. Robyn loved those unruly kids and had amazing patience with children who behaved in unbecoming ways. She was a gift to the children and a huge help to myself and our staff. As an educator, Robyn used her God-given talents in service to others. I am grateful for her kind heart and skill as a teacher, and I will miss her.

  6. CandleImageI will miss her so much, as will many others. Robyn was my best friend since high school, we had many adventures and she helped me make sense of the world so many times. Such a terrible loss to her family and everybody who knew her, but I am very grateful that she was in my life, and I was in hers.
