I’m so sorry to hear of Robin’s passing. He was always so incredibly kind to me, and I will always be grateful for the part he played in my life growing up.

Lori and Robin were truly like another set of parents to me during all those years Tiffany and I spent growing up together.  Robin was always looking out for us and making sure we were safe and taken care of. Whether it was letting us borrow a truck for a school dance or making sure we made it home safely after roller skating back and forth between each other’s houses, he was always there in the background, watching out for us.

And even as elementary school kids, there were two things we knew for certain—you did not mess with Robin’s cars or his garden! Those are the little memories that stay with you and make you smile even through the sadness.

I feel very fortunate to have grown up knowing Robin and to have so many memories of his kindness and care. He was such an important part of those years, and he will truly be missed.

My heart goes out to Lori, Tiffany, Jason and the entire family. Rest peacefully, Robin. ❤️

Lori, I am shocked and saddened for you and your family. I remember when you and Robin were dating and then when you tied the knot. You shared a love unlike  so many today.  May his memory be a blessing to you always.  I’m holding you close in my heart right now. ❤️

Lori,
Tom and I are deeply sorry to hear of Robin's passing.  Robin was such a good guy, husband, father and grandfather.  Our hearts break for you, Lori.

Debbie & Tom Sizemore

As a student of Robin at CCSN and being able to see him regularly through his work at the DMV emission lab. I have nothing but gratitude for all the knowledge and support over the years. Finally, after years of ignoring his recommendations to come work with him at the lab, I accepted a position to work with him at the lab. My first day was the following day of his last. I regret not being able to work with him for his last few weeks before retirement. I will miss everything about him, and I find myself jealous of those who had the opportunity to spend more time with him.  With respect and admiration, he will be missed.

Dear Lori & Family,
Maria and I want to express our deepest sympathy for your loss.

From the very first time I met Robin I felt as though I had found  a good friend.
 That was due to Robins warm and open demeanor topped by his deep sense of humor that could sometimes be a gentle  sarcasm. I felt honored to be his friend.

When we talked it was always apparent that his loves and priorities were always his Lori followed by his children.

Robin had a legion of friends everyone liked Robin he was one of those “good guys.” 
 Another reason is that  he was a great teacher who easily won his students’ respect and admiration. 

Maria and I pray that the Good Lord will work to ease the burden of your loss. 
Fondest wishes, Tom and Maria Finneran
