We lost an “outlaw” as he would call himself, but in reality the outlaw was a dad, a better grandpa, an Uncle Rah, and brother. He was a critter whisperer. He definitely was true to his words. We will sure miss the “Weather Dad” calls when bad weather comes our way, or when our cars make crazy noises and we call to try and repeat noises so he can tell us what to fix. We will miss the silly calls starting with your nickname he ever so lovingly gave you, for example “Polecat Sally what are we doing now?” He definitely was having a good time even when no one else was.

Robin is survived by his children, Thomas Hood (Maleah), Ethan Smith, and Melissa Nesmith (Cody) and their mother, Angela Smith; his siblings, David Hood, Charlie Hood, Lisa Jones (Jeremiah), and Tina Stout; 6 grandchildren, Kalin Durard, Tes Smith, Landon Smith, Zachary Smith, Sebastien Smith, and Emberly Smith; nieces and nephews, Jessi Hood (Michael), Nathan Brown (Cara), Shawn Brown (Becky), Stacy Hood, Josh Hood (Kayla), Ben Stout, Austin Hunter, Delaney Stout, Angel Stout (Quon), Aryan Jones (Emma); several great nieces and great nephews.
Just a reminder, “ya gotta watch out for the pilgrims” and “people doing things” as he would say.
