Seventy-seven years ago, on August 13, 1932, a baby boy was born, the son of Arthur Edward and Nell Grace (Music) Robinson. No one knew at the time what an impact this young man would have on the lives he encountered throughout his lifetime.
Survived by his loving wife, Sue Lynn (Fuson); his son, Mark Edward Robinson, wife Deborah; and daughter, Terri Sue (Robinson) Krause, husband Robert Krause; his brother, Robert Dean Robinson, wife Barbara; sister, Rebecca (Robinson) Dean, husband Charles Dean, and sister Faye (Robinson) Sullivan, husband Robert Sullivan; grandchildren: Micah David Robinson, wife Noel, Jenesis Michelle (Robinson) Soukup, husband Adam, Alexander Michael Zornig, and Alisa Suelynn Zornig; great-grandchildren: Hannah Michelle and Josiah Adam Soukup, Autumn Hope and Honor Grace Robinson.
Lowell never knew a stranger, whether an Indian Chief he picked up hitchhiking to Washington D.C., and brought home for a good night’s rest and a hot meal, or one of the many boys who called the Robinson home “home,” or a single mom and her children who needed a safe place to live...they all became a part of the Robinson family, and more importantly, most became a part of the family of God.
Children and men alike (and even some of the fearless ladies) lined up for their grunting hugs. Everyone knew they could count on being warmly and soundly welcomed, and leave Lowell, knowing they were “muchly” loved.
If anyone deserved the “Golden Ears” award, Lowell did, for patiently listening to others as they shared their dreams, heartaches, joys, failures and successes. He was everyone’s biggest fan, and ours. And, no one left without a prayer of blessing and an assurance of love.
His legacy of generously sharing all he had with others, his life, his resources, and his love for Jesus, will live on in the thousands of lives he touched, even through his final week.
Celebrate with us! He was ready to go. He wanted to go. What more could you ask than on Sunday morning at 8 a.m. ET, at his daughters home in Elkhart, Indiana, October 25th, 2009—he just slipped away and began praising the Lord together with that great cloud of witnesses, the way he always wanted to in his heart?
