Obituary

Pastor Don F. Robinson, of Harrison, Arkansas passed away Friday, May 5, 2017 at St. Joe, at the age of 75.

The son of James M. and Elsie (Potter) Robinson was born September 30, 1941 at Hindsville, Arkansas.

He spent several years living in Oklahoma pastoring the Etna Wesleyan Church, but Arkansas was always home.  He spent the last 10 years as pastor of Highland Wesleyan Church in Harrison.  He worked in maintenance for Big Cedar Apartments, and held a variety of jobs throughout his life.

Don enjoyed working with his hands and was a hard worker, but he was never too busy for his family or grandchildren.  He was a devoted and loving husband, father, and grandfather.  He was a servant of the Lord, and was faithful until the end.  To his family, "Big Me" had shoes that can never be filled and he will be missed.

He was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents; a daughter, Deborah Robinson; a brother, Bill Robinson; and 3 brothers-in-law, Bob Lillie, Ken Flint and Larry Cook.
