Robin Williams

Robin Maurice Smith Williams was born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama on August 7, 1961, to Maurice Chocolate Smith and James Herbert Smith. She was the second daughter born to this union. She was preceded in death by both of her parents. Robin accepted Christ at an early age and worshiped alongside her family at Avery Chapel AME Church in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. She attended elementary and high school at Millwood School in Oklahoma City and graduated in 1978. Robin received her BSN and MSN degrees in Nursing in 2000 and 2011, respectively. After receiving her nursing degrees, Robin worked for the Department of Corrections at East Mental Hospital, Louisiana Correction for Women, and Affinity Health and Rehabilitation Nursing Home. She was also a member of Chi Eta Phi Professional Nurses Sorority. On March 22, 2002, Robin was united in matrimony with Dr. Aubrey Williams Jr., and in 2009, they were blessed with a baby boy, Aubrey J. Williams. Robin loved life and her family. It was a tradition in our family for Robin to bring the gumbo and jambalaya to the table on a regular basis. No one could do it better. Robin loved the Cooking Channel and Food Network, and would whip up special dishes with no effort at all. Robin loved being a wife and mom to the men in her life, a sister/partner in crime to her only sister Jamiere and a thoughtful counsel to her niece Machiah. Robin was a fighter to the end when God called her. Robin always had a sparkle in her eyes, even as her body started to lose the battle. Her spirit was pure and loving, and now she is with her parents in paradise. Robin leaves to mourn her passing her husband, Aubrey; her son, Aubrey J.; her sister, Dr. Jamiere Y. Smith; her niece, Machiah Gill; her maternal aunt, Barbara Pendleton; and cousins, Dr. Scott Pendleton and Dr. Karen Pendleton; and a host of relatives and friends. A Memorial service will be held at Community Bible Baptist Church, 1729 Monte Sano Ave Baton Rouge, La. 70805 on Saturday, June 18, 2016 at 11:00am. Arrangements by Rhodes United Fidelity Funeral Home.
