She was a teacher at my school. Just heard she passed. My thoughts and prayers go out to her and her family. She’ll be remembered by all ❤️

My heartfelt condolences go out to the entire family of Robin.  She was an amazing individual who truly fought the good fight always.  She was a caring and determined person who believed in life and love.  I was a colleague at both Lincoln Ave. PS and Avenue Road PS, but most of all, I was a book club buddy and friend.  I hope and pray that Robin is with her Dad and sister Bev, enjoying eternity.  Yay you, Robina! 

I was leaving condolences for a friend who had passed, when  I came across Robin's notice.  It stopped me short.  Robin and I were in yoga class together, I can still hear her telling me "don't sweat the small stuff"  We talked about the best place in town to get a piercing :) and she taught me the very best way to eat an avocado; get a rice cake, spread on some hummus, then top it all off with avocado. My deepest and heartfelt condolences to all who loved her.  She was a remarkable woman. 

I am so sad to hear this news.   My daughter Sarah and Trinh were very good friends through elementary school.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.  

Robin always showed love and caring to those around her regardless of age or status.  
Fondly remembered by Ruth McPhail.

I give my heart felt condolences to the family. I new the girls for many years. We lived across the street for a time and then up around the corner. We went to school together all the way through to high school. Bev was my age and Robin was a little younger They were very close. After high school I was out in Calgary and Bev came to stay with us for a time.  These girls were both so talented, good spirited and cared for everyone around them. I was so sad to hear of Robins passing I will remember her fondly. The last time I saw her she gave me the biggest hug, just a wonderful person she will be missed.

I am so saddened to hear of the loss of a giving and caring lady. She was a colleague at Lincoln Avenue. She was an EA in my classroom.  She was an angel on earth and now she is an angel in heaven.  Love you , Robin.

My sincere condolences for the loss of a truly wonderful and amazing woman - Robin.  I knew Robim from Southwood and would see her often at the YMCA.  She was a sports enthusiast and her love of teaching and mentoring students made her so very special.  Her love of family was what she valued most in life and she fought this battle with such grace and determination.  

She will be missed by many people as she touched the lives of so many of us.  

Kind Regards,
Kathryn Emms

I went to high school with Robin. We shared some classes but were not great friends. I think I met her at the 50th reunion and once more in the 40 yrs since high school. Robin always was friendly and caring to those around. So sad to hear she's gone.  She had a great smile!

Robin was an angel on earth to everyone who was blessed to know her.  She showed all of us what it means to live your life with passion and to love the people in it deeply and unconditionally. Robin's family was her pride and joy. She often shared stories of her husband, children, and grandchildren and talked about how much she appreciated every moment with each of them. Her face lit up with her love for them. Her love for her family went beyond the limits of this world and will always be with every one of her precious family members. I pray that those love filled memories will bring comfort and strength to all of her family. 
Robin was an incredible educational assistant, who changed the lives of the students she worked with.  I know many of the students she worked with at Lincoln Avenue and then at Avenue Road, and every one of them talks of her with gratitude and admiration. She was a role model for both her students and her co-workers. She stood up for what she knew was best for her students, often advocating for them when they could not do it for themselves, and she enriched their lives in so many ways. I was blessed to work with her and admired her dedication to her family, her work, her students and her colleagues. I am honoured to call her my dear friend and I'm grateful for her support, encouragement, strength and courage. We are all better people for knowing  and loving Robin, and sharing this world with her. I will carry Robin's spirit in my heart always and do my best to live up to her example.
Thank you Robin for being my dear friend and showing me what strength and courage truly are. I will miss you always, and think of you with love every day. 
Love, Heather 

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of Robin.  It was my pleasure to have Robin as a colleague during my teaching years at Lincoln Ave. school.   My classroom was a better place because of her kind humour and compassion for students, especially those with special needs.  

 I'm so sorry! She was a truly wonderful and caring person. She will be missed. Virtual hug from the Guttin family. (Reg/Mary & Sarah)

So sad to hear of Robins passing.  Robin and I were friends throughout our school years. I have watched Robins life on Facebook over the years and am thankful to have seen her last year at the Southwood Reunion. May her family feel comfort knowing that she is resting peacefully. She was loved so much and loved so much back.   I am away on vacation and will be thinking of everyone at Robins Celebration of Life and sad that I cannot be there. 

Robin was my sons EA she was a kind, caring, loving soul. She was definitely a wonderful part of my sons journey through school. She was a  great advocate. She will be greatly missed.  May you  Rest In Peace Robin. 

I'm am very sorry for your loss of dear Robin, I went to public school and middle school with Robin.  We lost touch before going to different high schools but we most recently reunited with each other at the YMCA and we became friends on Facebook where  I followed her courageous fight with cancer on her site, an amazing person. Please accept my condolences to her entire family.   

Robin showed us all how to live. She was full of warmth and love, always sharing stories about her family, in particular her husband, children, grandchildren, and her mom. She advocated hard for her students, many of whom were unaware of how to do so for themselves. She spent countless hours coaching teams like volleyball, teaching many young ladies how to work hard, support one another, and have fun. I will carry her spirit with me, and miss her every day. She was a very rare and special person, and a very dear friend, with an optimism I can only hope to achieve. 

I love you Robin. 

Love, Jo

I will always remember Robin  as a very kind and gentle soul. The love she had for her family is something that will forever live on. Heartfelt Sympathy to all the family at this sad time!!
