My relationship with Robin goes back to shortly after Jamie's birth when she joined CFUW, and this relationship grew and became stronger when we attended so many CFUW executive, general and interest group meetings together. We carpooled for years when I lived on Douglas and she lived on Elm. She and I are the only original members of the 35-year-old Fun With Food group which has been such an important part of both of our lives.

Oh foodies, what sad news! We'll miss those stories about the wilds of Georgian Bay. And her very wry take on current affairs.

I am shocked and very sad to learn of this news. Unfortunately I will still be in Florida but Robin will be in my thoughts on the weekend. She was a fount of knowledge and such good company we will miss her tremendously in our group.
