Ms Robbie was a strong Christian who loved her family, church, and friends. If church was meeting, she was there. Prayers for comfort.
special lady. I’ll always remember her wise advice to keep my eyes on Jesus when I got saved. She knew as humans we sometimes let each other down but Jesus never does. I cherish memories of our family gatherings at Uncle James and Aunt Robbie’s house, nights out on their barge and how she loved to fish! I also have precious memories of us staying with them in the summer and going to Vacation Bible School. Aunt Robbie loved Jesus and had a special talent for working with children! I know she is having a reunion with our mom and family who have gone before her. Aunt Robbie give Mom a hug from me. Our prayers and love are with you Family as you grieve for your sweet mom.
Robbie holds a very special place in my heart. I worked with her at two places and just loved her. A loving, kind and joyful Christian lady I had such respect for. Praying for family members. ❤️
Ms Robbie was such a wonderful Christian lady with a kind soul. She will be missed! Praying for the family.
Aunt Robbie will be remembered with loving fondness. She had an amazing talent of reaching children and I am sure left a mark with more than can be remembered. She laughed so much and I remember her enthusiasm for teaching us about Jesus. She, like some of her siblings, to play funny pranks. Ohh how they loved each of their siblings. I have memories of going to Sunday school, picking blackberries, family walks and Aunt Robbie teaching me how to swim in the middle of the lake, I was so scared. But Aunt Robbie convinced me. Love her so much. I know she is rejoicing in Heaven with Jesus and all those that left before her who she loved dearly. Our condolences and prayers are with all her dearly loved family during this most difficult time. 🙏
Ms. Robbie was very much a part of my kids’ childhood memories. Cracking pecans, hula hooping, delivering tea cake cookies…she was a beautiful human, inside and out. So passionate about the Lord and loving others. We’ve missed her lots since we moved and lost her as a neighbor. I’m certain she’s enjoying Heaven and the jewels in her crown. ❤️ Love and prayers to the family!
Oh I just loved Ms. “Wobbie” as I always lovingly called her. She was a special lady and had such a connection with the kids! She had my son, now 28, in Mother’s Day Out and he absolutely loved her. She’s just changed locations and we will see her again! Prayers for peace to the family!
I know heaven is rejoicing to have Aunt Robbie. Her spirit and love of life are the foundation of my memories. I don’t remember time that her kindness and joy did not shine through. My childhood is filled with memories of visiting Aunt Robbie and Uncle James. It was always an adventure filled with love and laughter and maybe a trip to the Doctor for some injury but it was always worth it. I recall her love for Vacation Bible School and how much I wanted to go every summer. I know she loved her family deeply and I send my love to all her family who I know will miss her dearly. She is a treasure.
Both of my daughter were in her class at MDO.
She will be missed here on earth but I have no doubt I will see her face and hug her neck again one day.
I am
Praying for her loved ones.
Ms. Obbie {as my daughter used to say}, go rest high on that mountain, your work on earth is done.
Forever grateful to have you in my life 💜
