Robin attended boarding school in England and excelled at drama, rugby and art.  He received a degree in Fine Art and Geology at the University in Portsmouth, England.  He then spent a year in the Voluntary Services Overseas in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe.)  He later went on to train and work as a fine art restorer in England, San Francisco and New Orleans and later opened his own gallery in New Orleans.  Before retiring, Robin spent many years as a Legal Medical Coordinator at Southern Orthopedic Specialists.  He was an artist, a gentle spirit, the life of the party and loved by many.
