    We are sorry to hear about Miriam. She was a sweet person,always made me smile. When I worked with her years ago at Bonworth, she always had stories to tell me about my daddy. (David Robinson) Momma and daddy send their love and prayers. They are sorry they are out of town and won't be home for her funeral. We will be praying for you all. May God wrap His loving arms around each of you and give you peace. We love you all. David, Una Mae, & Lisa Robinson

    Cricket, I am sorry for your loss. I just saw this today. I saw Miriam and talked to her just a few weeks ago. She will be missed. You are in my prayers.
