Stop smoking or better yet, don't ever start he would say if he could do so today. Born February 9, 1963, in Lyons, Ks. He attended school there until October of his Junior year, 1979 when he transferred to Maize High School, graduating with honors in 1981. He excelled in track and wrestling and with his boyhood friend , Mark Lebsack, they mastered the art of riding the unicycle, which they did in many school and City parades. Robin's first job was a paper route that he delivered on his unicycle. During his Senior year he held a full time job with Long John Silvers. He went on to become an award winning Manager at many locations in Wichita. He served in the U.S. Army, enlisting as a tank driver only for the sign up bonus, and was very proud of his Country, Flag, and service. He received an honorable discharge.

He shared with us at her service that he learned never to cuss after she washed his mouth out with soap, but no one knew that until she passed away. He was preceded in death by his wife, Kimberly Kathleen who passed away August 3rd, 2005, Grandparents Coulter and Elva Connery, Lyons; Roy and Dorothy Meier, Hutchinson; Lewis C. Killion, Ft.
