You never said I'm leaving. You never said goodbye. You were gone before I knew it and only God knew why. A million times I needed you a million times I cried. If love could have saved you, you never would have died in life. I loved you dearly. In death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place that no one could ever fill. It broke my heart to lose you but you didn't go alone for part of me went with you the day God took you home.
Rest in love Mr. Eddie known you 38 years thanks for being good to my mom and us

"THEREFORE, I ENDURE ALL THINGS FOR THE ELECT'S SAKES, THAT THEY MAY ALSO OBTAIN THE SALVATION WHICH IS IN CHRIST JESUS WITH ETERNAL GLORY. IT IS A FAITHFUL SAYING: FOR IF WE BE DEAD WITH HIM, WE SHALL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM. FOR I AM NOW READY TO BE OFFERED, AND THE TIME OF MY DEPARTURE IS AT HAND. I HAVE FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT, I HAVE FINISHED MY COURSE, I HAVE KEPT THE FAITH. HENCEFORTH, THERE IS LAID UP FOR ME A CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, WHICH THE LORD, THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGE, SHALL GIVE ME AT THAT DAY, AND NOT TO ME ONLY, BUT UNTO ALL THEM ALSO THAT LOVE HIS APPPEARING. "

REMEMBER ME
REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU HEAR THE WIND BLOW,
I AM WITH GOD, I NEED YOU TO KNOW
HE CALLED MY NAME, AND I WENT TO SEE
IF THE VOICE I HEARD WAS SPEAKING TO ME,
HE TOOK MY HAND, WE WALKED ALONG
THE ROAD TO HEAVEN, WHERE I BELONG.
THE ANGELS SANG SO SWEET AND CLEAR.
THEY SANG OF LOVE AND THAT JESUS IS NEAR.
I FELT HIS TOUCH, I SAW HIS FACE,
I KNEW IN AN INSTANT I WAS IN HIS GRACE,
HE SPOKE TO ME, I HEARD HIM SAY,
YOU ARE HOME NOW CHILD, YOU HAVE FOUND YOUR WAY.
SO REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU HEAR THE WIND BLOW,
I AM HOME NOW WITH GOD, I NEED YOU TO KNOW.
MAY GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL,
TRINITY MORROW
To the Robinson family, sorry for your loss. It was nice having Eddie as a brother-in-law, he will surely be missed. As you know, God promises a time when "He will swallow up death forever." (Isaiah 25:8) Imagine living on a beautiful paradise earth where sickness and death will no longer exist, and dead ones will be brought back to life!
Until that time, however, there's some helpful information on how to deal with grief on jw.org. Just type grief into the search box.
May our loving God Jehovah comfort and strengthen you all!
I just want you to know how important you are to me knowing that you care and understand me, that you trust and believe in me. I just want you to know how wonderful it is having you as my boyfriend, knowing that you are always there for me, that you will always be my friend. I just want you to know that I know how wonderful you are, that I do care. & I do love you. Rest In Peace.
POEM TO MY BROTHER
HE LEFT US IN THE EARLY MORNING,
WHEN SOFTLY CAME THE DAWN
AND SINCE HE SAID GOOD-BYE
IT'S HARD TO THINK HE'S GONE.
OH, TOO HE LEFT US WEEPING,
LONELY AND WITH ACHING HEARTS
BUT WE KNOW ANGELS ARE KEEPING YOU
WHERE SWEET JOYS WILL NEVER DEPART,
IN OUR HEARTS THE MEMORY LINGERS
SWEETLY TENDER , FOND AND TRUE
THERE'S NOT A DAY, DEAR BROTHER,
THAT WE DO NOT THINK OF YOU.
DEAR BROTHER, YOU LEFT US
YOUR SMILING FACE WE.LL SEE NO MORE
BUT WE WILL STRUGGLE ON TO MEET YOU,
ON THAT CELESTRIAL SHORE.
REST IN PEACE,
OLA FAYE
To the Family of Bro. Eddie Robinson, We were deeply sadden to hear the loss of Bro Eddie Robinson may God be with you all in your time of sorrow. From Pastor Terrance and First Lady Natalie Hill and the entire Trinity Temple Family
Family,
I wish that I knew the words to say but I don't. I am going to miss your father. He was such a great model of what it means to love your family. I have so many wonderful memories with Unc. My favorite memory was 15 years ago, when we planned the family reunion together at MD Resort. He was so happy to pull the family together and fund the effort. I remember thinking, he really loves all of us. His love was always evident and he was there from my graduation to always coming to town for Markus' bday. I am going to miss him dearly. I am praying for you and I love you all dearly. I wish that we could all be together but Covid-19 prevented us from being with you today. My prayers are with you all… Markesha Hill Clausell
