Helen Robinson
November 2, 1928 — July 26, 2019
Helen “PeeWee” Louise Robinson, 90, formerly of Shaftsburg, MI, went into the arms of Jesus on Friday, July 26, 2019 in Clarksville, TN.
Born in Kalamo Twp, MI on Election Day, November 2, 1928, Helen resided in Shaftsburg, MI with her husband Luther for over 50 years. Helen was the daughter of the late Merlin Rich and Essie Rich Harmen. In addition to being a devoted and nurturing mother, grandmother, and homemaker, Helen worked at Bell Telephone, The Kirby Co., Perry Laundromat and Quality Dairy. Helen’s passions were gardening – both flowers and vegetables, attending church, reading, dancing, listening to music, traveling, mentoring, reading to others (even into her 80’s!), baking, and cooking for others. Helen was also a talented seamstress who often made her children’s clothing.
Helen is survived by her children; Michael (Roxane) Cleeves, Linda (Blaine) Kimball, Shirlee Tant, Merry (David) Phillips, Teresa (Terry) Gilson; 11 grandchildren; 19 great-grandchildren; many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Her warm presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Helen was preceded in death by her husband, Luther Robinson, on December 30, 2014; siblings, Mary, Madeline, Bethel, and Albert “Bud”.
A memorial service will be held at 11am on Friday, September 6, 2019 at Graham Church, 7320 W. Beard Rd. in Shaftsburg, MI.
