I met Mrs Robinson when I was 15yrs old; when Claire, my sister Leydin and I became friends. I have fond memories of the times I spent in her home, and I am glad that over the years we kept in touch with Christmas cards and occasional visits. I had the privilege to visit with Mrs Robinson during her hospital stay when Claire made the trip to visit her in December. Her eyes lit up with genuine joy that showed she was glad to see us. She smiled all the while talking about plants and wild birds, which she so loved. I was impressed that even in that moment she thought of others as she inquired about my family and sharing her thoughts as if we were in her living room having tea, This is how I will always remember her and I feel blessed to have known her throughout my adult life.
