Mrs. Robin Williams-Coburn

Obituary for Robin Williams-Coburn (Beloved Mother, Sister, Wife) Robin Denise was born on January 26, 1961 in Brooklyn, New York to Mr. & Mrs. Theodore and Vera Williams Jr. On September 26, 1992, Robin married Rennie Coburn. Her marriage produced one son, Rennie Coburn Jr. The oldest of three, Robin graduated from John Dewey High School. She continued her education at Cheyney State University where she pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and received her Bachelors Degree in Special Education with a concentration in Hearing Impairment. Having graduated with high honors, Robin received and accepted a full scholarship to Ohio State University where she received her Masters Degree, also in Special Education with a concentration in Hearing Impairment. It was only fitting that Robin would work with the less advantaged, as she was a caring, compassionate, and giving person. Robin gave her all to every person whether she knew you or not. If you really knew Robin, You’d know of her gentle spirit and her sweet smile. She showed compassion for those she loved and was especially generous with her heart. She was always that positive, lenient soul who accepted all of us just the way we were. We had to make no changes to be in Robin’s good graces. She took us all, as we were. She loved and protected us all, sometimes from ourselves and often from the world in which we live. Her voice of reason was selfless and she listened to all of our words, no matter how extreme. What we will all miss is the unconditional love she freely gave us. Never angry or impatient, she was always smooth and graceful. Our Robin was not outspoken, never loud, but always heard. She was happy for our successes and supportive about our challenges, always putting others first. There are so many of us who needed the type of love we got from Robin. We might never find that again. Our only comfort in the loss of Robin is that she is at peace, looking down, ready and waiting, until we meet again. Robin leaves to cherish her memory, her son Rennie Coburn Jr., brother Theodore Williams, 3rd, sister Kimberly Williams, niece Kiana Smith, nephews Trevor Holder, Jamel Williams and Jarelle Williams, cousin, Juanita Lofton, god daughter Imica Ovuworie, best friends Leslie David and Nina Hill and a host of other family and friends.
