Michael "Robby" Robinson's Obituary
Mr. Michael J. "Robby" Robinson, 68, passed away surrounded by his family Monday morning, January 26, 2015 in Naples FL. Born March 26, 1946 to John and Kathryn (Bolles) Robinson, Robby retired as a salesman from Bauer Sheet Metal having spent his entire career in the sheet metal industry. His SURVIVORS include his wife of 35 years, Vicki “Vi” Robinson; children: Rachael (Dave) Ernvall and son Rodney Robinson, brother William (Barb) Robinson, sister Robin Robinson, 4 grandchildren; Brooks Robinson and Eric, Stacey, Stephanie Ernvall and niece Amy Jandt. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother Richard. Robby “Funny Man” was an amazing husband, father and grandfather and loved his family very much. He loved playing golf, laughing, tinkering, race cars and spending time with his family and friends at the Glades in Naples, FL, and the cottage in Baldwin. He especially loved watching his grandchildren play sports. There was nothing Robby couldn’t figure out and he was always willing to lend a helping hand, God received a one-of-a kind Angel, and we have been blessed with his presence.
