I spent many happy hours with Aunt Mary and Uncle Winston when I was a child. This was before Archie and Fred were born. She was a wonderful Aunt and she made such good coconut cake. I miss seeing her at Robinson reunions.

Mary Love Robinson McKay was the youngest child and younger daughter of Archie and Eva Robinson. However, her position in the family came to be that of the "big sister" to take care of everyone in the family. She looked after her Mother and Dad in their later years. I especially remember that Aunt Mary and Uncle Winston would come to our home in Winchester when my brother Jerry and sister Janet were babies. They would take me with them to spend the day many times. This gave my mother a chance to have only two babies at home and it gave me a chance to play with a great Aunt and Uncle. I loved it when Aunt Mary called me "her girl". She later had two great boys who had great boys, but I wanted to always be "her girl". As I now resemble her physical characteristics, I hope one day to resemble her great Christian spirit. My Mom and Dad were great Christian parents who gave much love to family and I so much enjoyed the added love of this great Aunt Mary.
