Nina Robbs, 89, of Coal Hill, Arkansas went to sleep in the arms of Jesus on Saturday, October 29, 2022.
Nina Ruth Guptill-Robbs was born in Grand Valley, Colorado (present day Parachute, Colorado) on September 28, 1933 to Archie Harrison Guptill and Florence Ida Gregg-Guptill. She was the ninth of 10 children, spending her early childhood in western Colorado. She was an accomplished cosmetologist and owned her own Beauty Shop for several years in Rifle, Colorado. Nina met and married the love of her life, Ray Sherman Robbs, on January 13, 1966, living in the Pacific Northwest and enjoying many years in beautiful northern Idaho. They enjoyed 31 happy and eventful years together. After her retirement, Nina made the big decision to move to Tucson, Arizona, to live near her daughter, Colleen. She so enjoyed the sunshine and the casual lifestyle of southern Arizona. 2010 found her making another life changing decision to move to western Arkansas to live near her son, Delmer and family. Nina loved life and so enjoyed living near many of her grandchildren and welcomed each new great grandbaby as they joined the family. Nina was an accomplished cook, a caregiver and through her life she learned to be a jack of all trades. In her later years, she experienced health issues and lost one leg due to complications. Even though confined to a wheelchair, Nina lived independently and loved life and always had a cheerful attitude and a smile for everyone who came to visit her.
