Kenneth Robinson
January 30, 1935 — October 14, 2014
TSgt Kenneth Clark "Robbie" Robinson, USAF, (Ret.) left this earth on October 14, 2014. He was born on January 30, 1935, in Lynn, Massachusetts to George Robinson and Mable (Holbrook) Robinson. He married the love of his life, Shirley Lorraine (Pratt) Robinson, also of Lynn, on June 9, 1957, and they spent 57 years of wedded bliss together, traveling the United States, and the world with the Air Force, to places including Florida, Washington, The Philippines, Texas, Taiwan, and Illinois, all while raising their five much-loved children. They retired from the Air Force and moved back to Texas in 1974, and shortly thereafter he began his career at SCUCISD, from which he also retired after 20 years of service. He then began a new career in the fire extinguisher sales and repair business at A-1 Fire and Safety in San Antonio, and worked there until he was ready to retire for good, and enjoy his life spending more time with his children and grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his mother and father, George and Mable, his brothers, Clarence and Vinny, and his beloved, Shirley just four short months ago. He is survived by his brothers; George and Donald; his sister, Marlene; his children, David, Michelle, Dina, Tricia, and Holly; his grandchildren, Dina Alicia, David Jr., Atticus, Geneva, and Reilley; and by his great grandchildren, Alicia and Ava. He was a great man, a hard-working son, a loyal brother, a loving husband, a wonderful father and grandfather, a dedicated and honest co-worker and boss, and a great friend to many. He was loved by, and will be missed by all who knew him. Graveside Service will be held on Wednesday, October 22, 2014, at 11:00AM, at Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery, Pastor Joe Walts officiating.
