Edwardine Delores Robison Obituary (1922

Eddie passed away on August 5, 2016. Always at her side was her beloved husband Sam and daughter Sandy. They, as well as many family members, were surrounding her as the Lord received her. Eddie was born in Seattle on October 13, 1922 to John and Blanche Sinnett. She grew up as one of seven children in West Seattle and in 1940 she graduated from Holy Rosary High School. She attended Business College and upon graduation worked at Pacific NW Bell. In 1950 she married the love of her life Sam Robison. In an era where many women were not business owners, Eddie worked and thrived along with Sam for close to 30 years as together they built and operated a very successful company, Rainbow Ambulance. In retirement years she continued working with Sam managing and growing their various real estate investments. Eddie lived to work and none surpassed her work ethic. She was at the helm every step of the way until the past few years, and no one could do her job as well as she could. Eddie will be forever remembered as quietly and compassionately generous in all ways with her time and kindness to others. Your friend was her friend and what she had she would gladly share. Exercise was her passion. She was an avid runner, boater, biker and snow skier. She knew what she loved. Her hair long and blond, purple nail polish, high heels, short skirts and red corvettes. She also loved traveling...the more adventuresome the better. She lived life to the fullest with grace, gratitude and a constant, unfaltering faith in God and love of family. Eddie is survived by her husband Sam, married almost 66 years, and daughter Sandy (Freddy) and grandchildren Kyle (Kelsey), Andre and Gisel. She is adored by her many nieces and nephews and her surviving sisters Caroline Longshore and Dorothy Sinnett and many other family members. She will be deeply missed by her friends and family whose lives she profoundly touched.
