I was sorry to learn of Robin's passing earlier this week. I spent a lot of time in the Headrick home during junior high and high school. The entire family was an extension of my family and Rock and I have been through a lot together. I don't know her current family and close friends, but my prayers will include Robin, her immediate family and all of those close to Robin at this time of loss and difficult time. She is in God's hands now.
