Robin Williams Obituary

You and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers in this time of sorrow. I pray that the Lord comforts all of you in your time of premature loss.

The officers and members of the Dorcas Mission Ministry of the Mount Calvary Baptist Church, sincerely extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Robin Williams. For the last 10 years, Robin and her mother, Mrs. Gladys Williams, have contributed to our church's annual Angel Tree Gift Program. She encouraged her students to love others by trusting them purchase and wrap gifts for the children who received the Angel Tree gifts. Find comfort in knowing that
she blessed so many with her kindness and we are better people today because she touched our lives.
May her memories live forever in our hearts. They will grow richer through the years. They will nurture our laughter and water our tears. Memories live forever, sent from heaven up above to eternally connect us with the people we love.
Coletha Merritt-Dorcas President
Charmayne Posey-Angel Tree Coordinator

May you take courage and find comfort to know how much God cares for you.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust. Psalm 91:4

Deb and Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family.

To Deb and the Williams Family:
I am so sorry for your loss! You will be in our thoughts and prayers, and may God continue to bless you at this time of grief.

Ms. Williams was my first high school English teacher. Sincere, caring, and no nonsense are words I would use to describe her then. It wasn't until later that I began to appreciate her amazingly sharp wit and sense of humor. Once I read a small blurb in another text about the book 'Things Fall Apart' by Chinua Achebe and I asked her if she could tell me more about it. About a week later, she walked up to me in the hallway and put the book in my hand. I still have it and it serves as a reminder of how she went the extra mile for me. She will be sorely missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Robin at Hubbard H.S. for many years and loved her dry wit and humor. When I retired, she was at the front of the line to wish me well.She will be missed.!

To the Williams Family,
I was a fellow teacher with Robin at Hubbard High School. I am so sorry for your loss of your brilliant and loving Robin. Robin had many special ways of caring for all of us, to make us feel so cherished. She took time to listen and share her insights. She was patient, kind, loving, and hardworking with her students. They were as devoted to her as she was to them. She worked extra hours with after-school activities to enrich their lives. As she always remembered my birthday, I know you also loved her thoughtfulness and remembrances. She was so very generous with herself. Her love for us is enduring in life and beyond. I thank Robin and her family and friends for such happiness and good memories.

Dear Debra and Family,

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your dear sister and daughter. Hopefully, memories of the laughter and fun times will help to ease the pain. You will be in our thoughts and prayers, and may God continue to bless you at this time of sorrow. Norma Callender, San Jose, CA

To the Williams family,
I was a former student of Robin, and I was struck with awe when I heard of this devastating news. I will pray for comfort for the family during this time. God Bless You All, and she will be missed!

The most adorable, funny, fun, brilliant, loyal, dedicated person I've ever had the good luck to call a friend. Friends 4ever, Robin!!

Dear Mrs. Gladys, Kevin, Debra and Steve,

I am so sorry that Robin had to leave us so soon. Even thought I never had the pleasure to meet her in person, I'd knew she was kind, generous, intellegent and a good hearted woman. I knew how my honey, Kevin, loved his baby sister and also knew he would do anythhing for her, that, made me respected and loved her as well.

I am so sorry that my daughter Keanna did not have the change to interact, enjoy and love her aunty Robin.

Please accept my heartfelt and deepest condolences of your daughter and sister.

May her spirit and memories bring joy to all of you and smiles to your faces. You are in my prayers, and God bless you.

Debra,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. Take care and God bless.

Debra,
My prayers and thoughts are with you. Hold on to your precious memories. Take time out for yourself and for your family. Take care.

To the Williams Family:

Robin was the best when it came to dedication to her work and unmatched in her generosity. No matter what she was doing or where she was, she never hesitated to help you. I'll miss her for that,along with her storytelling; making me laugh like no one else could; and her wonderful, earthy spirit.
I, too, have suffered a loss.

You have my heartfelt sympathy. May God bless and strengthen you at this time.

Dear Williams Family,
Please accept my warm and sincere condolences at the loss of your loving daughter/sister, Robin Denise Williams. She sounds like a beautiful and kind person and I know you will miss her greatly. Please know, though, that she will always be with/near you. God bless you.

Dear Williams family,

I can’t comprehend just how sad you must feel
For the loss of your sister/daughter you love.
This sorrowful time must still feel unreal
And you’re looking for strength from above.

I hope, from my heart, that your pain will decrease,
That your spirit will gain strength again,
And I pray that your faith will create inner peace
And that God will send blessings-Amen.

Deep condolences,

To the Williams Family:
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We are mourning with our friend and co-worker Debra Williams. The Association of Black Employees at the Santa Clara Valley Water District share your sorrow. We extend sympathy to Debra and her entire family.

You will always be in my heart. A true friend, A wonderful soul, the true light that illuminated my journey. The world has lost another wonderful human being, but Heaven has recieved a pure angel. I am comforted knowing that, when my time comes, I will not feel so lonely, for heaven will reunite me with my parents and one of my best friends, you. I imagine you and I talking on Hall Duty, going to the movies or having late lunch at Red Lobster. Those were the days... Farewell sister...

From the first day I met Robin, we shared so many laughs. She could find humor and a bright side in the darkest situation. How she encouraged her students and went beyond the second mile every year to make sure they were truly educated. Here's to the surviving memory of a great woman who blessed our lives with her presence.

Dear Siblings, our sister as provide a very endearing lesson in life:
Its not how long in years you live your life on earth, but what counts is the life you live during the years you live on earth. I will miss our beloved sister in so many ways in my heart , the words cannot begin to express my sorrow, if there are any qualifications for saint hood, our sister has met them all. We will miss you so much and Love you dearly, your brother Stephen Levin Williams

Sorrow and pain gently mingle creating a whirlpool of grief inside my heart. The times we shared over the years can never be replaced or forgotten. Your kindness, generosity, intellect, patience and overwhelming goodness brightened my life. May your soul soar to infinity. Elayne Worthy Sylvester

Robin,
You will be greatly missed. You opened up many hearts as well as the eyes of many a student. Their lives will be forever richer through your teachings and guidance into the wonderful world of reading. Hubbard H.S. is a better place because of you.
Love,
Blythe

Dear Gladys, Steve, Debra and Kevin,

I am so sorry that Robin was taken from us much, much too soon.
My thoughts and prayers go out to you at this very sad time. Robin was a very gifted woman, who shared those gifts with so many, and thus will be sorely missed. May her generous spirit comfort you and console you.
