IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Keith
Robinson
January 31, 1948 – October 15, 2021
Keith Robinson of Raleigh, NC, passed away at age 73, on October 15, 2021, after a prolonged battle with cancer.
Keith was born on January 31, 1948, to Albert Henry and Beatrice Ruby Robinson, née Stanton in Scunthorpe, England.
Keith immigrated to Canada in 1976, and in 1979, he met the love of his life, Joannie Walsh. They were married in 1981, going on to have three children, Stephen, David, and Mark.
They subsequently moved to the US in 1983, first living in Nashville TN, followed by a move to Raleigh in 1986.
Keith was first and foremost a family man and they meant more to him than anything else in the world. He was unendingly proud of Stephen, David, Mark, and Joannie and wholeheartedly supported them in all their endeavors.
Keith was one of the most kind, generous people you could ever have the honor of knowing. He would help anyone and the word "no" was not part of his vocabulary.
Keith was also a passionate soccer (true football) player and coach and was often found on the pitch or in a stadium, prior to taking ill. He enjoyed working and continued to consult with various companies throughout his many medical challenges over these past years. His work ethic was outstanding.
Everyone who knew Keith saw that he was the most loving husband, father, and friend a family could ask for. Keith was predeceased by his mother, Ruby, and his father, Bert. He is survived by his wife, Joannie; three sons Stephen, David, and Mark; and numerous loving relatives in both Canada and England.
