Norma Lorrayne Robinson

Norma Lorrayne Robinson, of Phoenix, AZ, passed away on Monday, June 8. 2020. Born in a small town in West Virginia and living most of her adult life in Ohio, Norma preferred to be called "Lo". The youngest in a family of nine children, Lo was born to the union of General Jefferson Davis Canada and Emma Lena Paradise on January 4, 1928.

Lo spent the earlier years of her life married to Richard Allen Jones in Bellaire, Ohio. After meeting Lo, most people would describe her as "feisty". She was petite, independent, and spirited and could always be counted on to express exactly how she felt. She graduated from the Bellaire School of Practical Nursing in November of 1970 and practiced her profession at Grant Hospital, Mount Carmel Hospital and the Ohio State University Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. In addition to being a successful nurse, Lo enjoyed writing poetry, making hats, drawing, solving word search puzzles, and occasionally testing her musical skills with a bass guitar. She loved sharing the Lord with friends and family and is now rejoicing in His presence.

Lo was preceded in death by her husbands, Richard Allen Jones, Charles Langon and Carson Robinson. She is survived by a daughter, Shirlee Lucille Jones; two sons, Clifton Edward Jones and Richard Douglas Jones and his wife Barbara; five grandchildren, John Jones, Breanna Jones, Lindsay Lawson, Timothy Jones and his wife Monique, and Emily Jones; and seven great grandchildren, Eric Potts, Elise Potts, Ryland Lawson, Taylor Jones, Cash Garcia, Cole Craig, and Kennedy Jones.
