Robin, you will be remembered very fondly. Although we have not seen much of you since you've lived in Denville, our memories are from your childhood days when you & Suzanne babysat Lori & Gina and were good friends in the neighborhood. You fought a courageous fight and now may you rest in peace. God has a special place for you in heaven. Our sincere sympathies go out to all of your family. Arleane, Frank, Lori & Gina

Robin was an angel in my life. She so beautifully and graciously stepped forward to continue our collective Birthday Book Club efforts for years...many hours spent together sitting on the sofa preparing books, shopping at Barnes & Noble, perusing potential contibutions... Her passion and dedication were true reflections of her love for the children. I will miss her grace, her laughter, her sense of humor, her beautiful smile.

I never met Robin, but she was a special source of happiness to my parents. When my dad, Bill Marrinan died, Robin was there for my mom, giving her strength and support. I think, from what I have heard, that Robin was love. Love never dies as long as you keep it in your heart and as long as you pass it on. Live on, Robin!

They don't come any better than Robin. I always admired her disposition. She was able to laugh at herself in any situation. Even as she faced her most difficult battle, she shined. Robin, you are the most courageous person that I know. May you rest in peace. My deepest condolences to Rich, Bobby, Carol, Suzanne, and the family.

Robin was fun and funny, and kind and caring. I always liked spending time with her and hearing what she had to say. She laughed easily, listened attentively, and was a good companion on trips to the outlets and the wolf preserve ... and even the Bronx Zoo. And she took good care of me when I forgot to look at the Friday Folder. I miss her.

Even though I never met Robin, (because I started working at NAPL after her diagnosis) I can tell by all the wonderful things people have been saying about her, that she was one of the good ones!
At this time, I wanted to send my deepest and most heart felt condolences to Robin’s family, her husband Rich, and their son Bobby. I will be praying that God’s strength and love surround them now and that He fill their hearts and minds with Robin’s loving spirit.

I feel privileged to say that Robin Schabaker was my friend. When I started working with Robin, she became my lifeline. She was not my boss, but sometimes she acted like it and secretly I wished she was. No matter how busy she was or what was going on, I could always depend on her compassionate ear, her friendly helping hand and a her passionate heart. She was one of the warmest, friendliest, and nicest people I have ever met and she will always remain a beacon bright light.

I am grateful to have known Robin and to have many pleasant memories of time shared with her on the baseball field and at Lakeview and Pack 99 events. Although the time I was fortunate enough to share with Robin was all too brief, her kind manner and her devotion to her family and her community have left a lasting impression that will extend far beyond her years here with us. My thoughts and prayers to go Rich, Bobby, and all of Robin's loved ones.
