Condolences to the Family- Robin was a lovely man who had a ready smile & a positive outlook on life. He helped shape me as a young man & I fondly remember him coaching myself, Damian, John Stewart et al at U12 level (rugby) for both Marist & Manawatu.

Bob was my mum, Erice Murphy's, cousin. We got to know him well when you all living in Hamilton all those years ago in the 1970s.
Deepest sympathies to you all.

Sending sincere sympathy and love to you all. I worked with Robin at the Justice Dept, PN many years ago, He was a fun co-worker. He talked me into being secretary of the Tennis Club even though I didn't play tennis. I have many happy memories of that time. Rest In Peace Robin.

Jacqueline, Simon, Damian, Daniel and Families, my deepest sympathy to you all in the sad passing of your dear Dad Robin. He will be sadly missed but I am sure he will be greatly found in the welcoming arms of an angel of Brendon. Unfortunately Robin and I lost contact over the last 6 years but will cherish the wonderful catch ups we did have since Brendons passing. Thanks Robin for your friendship over those years now enjoy your time with him, Rest in Peace. xx

It was with sadness that I learnt of Robins passing. I have known Robin since moving into Windermere Village over 6 years ago. I loved his sense of humour and his total fairness when running our Bingo and organising our Melbourne and Christchurch cup days. He will be so very missed.
May the prayers sent your way give you extra strength in your hour of need.
