What Robbin and I have in common is our father! We never met until now in her death. We still didn't met, but the family put it all in perspective for me. I'm anxiously waiting to meet all.
I'm so sorry to hear of Robbins passing. It's been many years since I've seen her but I never forgot my childhood friend from Catherine St. May she Rest in Peace. My condolences to the family.

'Robin Renee House was a very dear friend of mine. I've known Robin from Ryan/Stevie toddler years. Back then we would share quiet evenings together just chilling. Our world's then grew apart, but Robin & I remain in touch with one another via telephone. We would then talk for hour's. Then our worlds met up again by working together, which lastest a few year's. Robin had a great since of humor & loved her children. Just recently we would remain in touch from last year to this year. I loved Robin Renee House & my heart is saddened by Robin's passing. To the family, stretch out onto GOD'S unchanging hand for strength & comfort. Remaining in prayer
