Robin met Scott Staggs when they were fifteen. Scott fell madly in love with Robin at first site, and always knew he would marry her. On June 17, 1983, Robin married Scott at Martha Baptist Church. From their union came their two children, Cody and Skylar. Robin loved being a mother, she raised her kids to love God and those around them. She especially loved becoming a grandmother. She was the ultimate grandma, given the nickname "Nana Wob" by her precious grandchildren. Robin loved her family more than anything else, she loved spending time with them and treasuring every moment.
Robin was a faithful woman who loved the Lord, the church, and her community. She was a proud and longtime member of the First Baptist Church of Blair, Oklahoma. She spread the word of God to those around her. She left a legacy to her family of God's amazing love and grace; she knew God and God knew her. Robin was a prayer warrior, often keeping those around her in her thoughts and prayers. Robin was proud and locked in her faith. She was a very happy and outgoing person. Robin knew how to light up a room and put a smile on someone's face. She loved visiting the beach, playing in the water and sand with her grandkids. Her love for the ocean, river, water, and sand led her all over: she went to Red River, New Mexico, the Panhandle of Florida Peninsula, Dustin, Miami but Fort Walton, Florida was always her favorite. She loved to watch the water and relax with her dear husband while also enjoying watching her kids and grandkids. Robin was the best person and friend. She had the biggest heart and held genuine love for her friends and even strangers. While being stranded at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, she met three young soldiers who weren't going to make it home, she paid and made sure all three soldiers were able to spend Christmas with their families. No one had a bigger heart than Robin Staggs.
