From daily Summer trips to the swimming hole, or grabbing a cane pole, his peace was at the water. In his last days, we were able to revisit these last fond memories. He reflected on his childhoods, and most of all, the love of his family. Although some may not have understood, his family was his greatest accomplishments. In his last words "I know it may not seem like it, but my family is everything". He showed his love to each individual family member.Robin will be sadly missed, and remain in our hearts forever.
