Text: Marcia Lee Robinson was born Sunday, September 8, 1935 in Los Angeles, California to the late George Morgan Davies and Eunice Corilla White. She was the eldest of the three Davies children. They mainly grew up at 10520 South Gramercy Place in Los Angeles, just three miles east of LAX. Vacations were spent going to visit Grandpa & Grandma White in the coal mining towns of Latuda or Helper, Utah. These were also the World War II year, and when the war ended all the kids came out onto Gramercy street with pie tins and banged them as a sign of their happiness.
At the age of 11 Marcia was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She was a good student and at George Washington High School was on the Drill Team and Cotton Day Princess. She graduated in 1953 and made plans to visit the Mesa Arizona temple with her family to be sealed. Marcia served an 18 month mission to the Huntington Park/South Los Angeles area and upon returning home, worked as a dental assistant. She also became a member of the Huntington Park South Los Angeles Stake Choir where she met her future husband, Reed C. Robinson. They were married on October 19, 1956 for 'time and all eternity' in the Los Angeles temple.
They purchased their first home in Buena Park in 1958 where three children were born. In 1965 they moved to Yorba Linda where their final baby was born and where they lived for the next 29 years. Relatives and close friends of the family in the same tract of homes made it especially fun.
Marcia & Reed did their best to provide their children with a wonderful well-rounded childhood. They had a stay-at-home mother and they attended church weekly. They had well established family traditions, nightly family meals, 'Family Night' on Mondays, and visited both sets of grandparents on a regular basis.
Soon grandkids started to arrive on the scene. Marcia loved her grandchildren and their arrival seemed to give her a new zest for life. When hearing that one of their grandmothers was coming over, the grandkids would ask if it was the 'Cookie Grandma' because she always made or brought cookies when she would come visit. To this day, the grandchildren would always look forward to their birthday card arriving from Grandma Marcia with one dollar inside of it.
Marcia was known to everyone that ever came to know her as one of the most tender, sweet, spiritual and loving people they had ever met. Despite the challenges that came with Marcia's health and within the Robinson household, the children look back with admiration to their parents for having given them such a wonderful life full of memories.
On January 9, 2013, after months of dedicated care by family and hospice staff, Marcia peacefully passed away surrounded by loved ones at her home in Hemet, California. Funeral services will be held at 10:00am Thursday, January 18th at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 425 N. Kirby St., Hemet, California. A viewing is scheduled one hour prior to the start of services. Interment and dedication of the grave by George M. Davies II will be held the following day, January 19, from 9:45-10:00am at Riverside National Cemetery, 22495 Van Buren Blvd., Riverside, California.
Marcia is survived by husband Reed C. Robinson of Hemet, CA; sons Dennis Robinson of CA; David (& Pam) Robinson of Murrieta, CA; Alan (& Tamara) Robinson of Peoria, AZ; daughter Lisa (& Arlen) Chelstrom of AZ; brother George (& Dixie) Davies II of Placentia, CA; sister Nancy (& Denzil) Merrill of Hacienda Heights, CA; thirteen grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.
