Robin married Shane Bird on April 15, 2000 in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, and they later divorced.

Raised in Wyoming, Robin was a proud graduate of Green River High School, Class of 1982.

She worked as a drug and addiction counselor for three years at South West Counseling. Professionally, Robin dedicated the last four years of her life to PTI, where she was a trusted driver, providing railroad workers with safe passage across regions.

Robin embraced life with a fervor for the natural world, finding joy in fishing, snowmobiling, and spending her days in the great outdoors. She was an avid reader, a passionate cook, and had a knack for crochet. Robin found immense happiness in playing with her dogs, baking treats for the holidays, and cherishing moments spent with family. Known for her bubbly and caring demeanor, she endeavored to perform a kind gesture for someone every day, leaving an indelible mark of warmth and compassion on all who knew her. Robin's life was centered around family and community.
