    My deepest thoughts and prayers go out to the Robinson family. I have so many wonderful memories of Mr. Robinson, his kindness, and amazing sense of humor. One moment that I will always remember, was when he gave my wife and me one of his personally painted blue dog pictures as a wedding present. Although that was several years ago, it remains on display in our home. It always has and will continue to bring a smile to our faces and remind us of how fortunate we are to have had him in our lives. God Bless.

    My Uncle Jack was a wonderful person. I most enjoyed trying to match him on the golf course and never came close. He was kind and caring, and we will miss him.

    Jack was a gentleman. Jack was one of the nicest person that I have ever known. Jack was a friend. Jack, John Keenan, Mike Harrington and I played golf for years at Dunwoody Country Club. He was longtime member of All Saints Catholic Church where he was respected and loved. Marlene and Lisa, know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I am sorry we will not be able to attend his Funeral. He will be missed. God Bless You. -Danny & Queenie Ross

    Jack was a friend, neighbor, golfing partner and a very special person. I knew him during his long life in Dunwoody. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Marlene and the entire Robinson family. Since the Robinson's moved to Charlotte to be closer to their family, we have only seen them a couple of times. He has been missed here and we now know he is in a better place. Just knowing him was a supreme privilege. God Bless . Danny & Queenie Ross
