Robin attended Wendell Phillips Academy High School in Chicago. Throughout her life, she lived in Houston, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada, before eventually settling in Galesburg. She worked for many years in sales and customer service, where her kind personality and strong work ethic shone though.

Robin enjoyed shopping, traveling, and could often be found happily munching on a bag of ice. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends and was a member of Holy Trinity Church.
