I went to school with Robin, we played softball growing up and her dad Allen helped to coach us. We lost touch for several years and ran into each other playing bingo. We became bingo buddies going all the way to Rock Hill South Carolina to play. Robin groomed creamed a couple of my dogs and her son Brandon played ball with my nephew Cory. Robin started selling Tasteful Treasures, her mom Kathy helped with the parties and I would always go if I could. We shared lots of laughs at those parties. Life happened and we lost touch again. I hadn't seen Robin for several years. I send prayers and hugs to Kathy, Michelle, Brandon and Carissa and their families. I wasn't able to attend the funeral, but you are all in my thoughts.

I\'ve known Robin for many years. She groomed several dogs for me starting when her grooming business was located on Rt 311. She became more than just a groomer for my dogs, she was a friend. We had many wonderful talks when I brought my dogs to her to be groomed. I also thought of her as an animal whisperer. She could get my dogs to do things for her I never could. And she loved on my babies like they were her own. Just about a month ago she and Jake groomed my new puppy for me. I wish I could have seen her when I came by. Jake told me she wasn't up to seeing anyone that particular day. Jake is a definitely wonderful guy. Bill and I commented more than once how good Jake was to Robin. I really considered Robin to be my family. Her dad Allen was my Aunt Pat Price's brother. I'm really going to miss seeing her and that beautiful smile. Love and condolences to you, her family, especially her children and grandchildren. Sympathy and love to you Jake. Bill Vogel and Anna Price Beveridge
