  3. I am so sorry to hear about Robin’s passing. We went to grade school and high school together. When she and her mom and brothers moved to East Dubuque, we were in 5th grade, and in the same class. We lived a couple of blocks apart. She was always smiling and kind. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

  4. Steve, Natalie, Jeremy and family – we are so sorry to hear about Robin. We will always remember the fun times at Iowa State, tailgating with your family.

    May you cherish the memories of your wife, Mom, and Nini.

    You are in our thoughts and prayers.

    Jeff and Luann Gregg
