Eugene Richard Robinson

Eugene R. Robinson, 88, formerly of Caldwell, Ohio, died in the presence of family on February 21, 2025.

He was born in Richwood, West Virginia on February 29, 1936 to Elmont and Nona Lena Robinson. Eugene proudly served in the Marine Corps, achieving the rank of Corporal by 1955, followed by honorable discharge in 1957. Working a variety of jobs, he specialized in the automotive collision industry. He was a life member and past president of The Greater Akron Motorcycle Club; and he was in recovery from alcohol addiction for 47 years. Eugene spent most of his retired years hunting, riding his motorcycles, and spending time with family. He was a very driven, focused man throughout his life- he always did things “his way.” He never met anyone he didn’t consider a friend and that was apparent in everything he did. 

He was preceded in death by his parents Elmont and Nona Lena; his siblings Paul, Elmont, Twyla, Linda, and Keith; and his son Randall.

He is survived by children David (Martha, Brenda), Richard (Joyce), Deloris (Bob); grandchildren David Jr (Veronica), Kevin, Amanda (Gary), Cynthia (Jamie), Jeremy (Nichole), Joshua (Kellie), Bobby (Olivia), Brian, and Tim (Michelle); and former wife Pansy.
