Tony Robinson

Tony was born on a cold December night at home with the help of a midwife. He was the 6th child, 3rd boy, born to Alfone 'Coot' Robinson and Ruby Canley Robinson. He was truly our moms 'BabyBoy'. Tony United with New Bethel Baptist Church at an early age, under Rev .A.D. Coffey, and later moved to St. John M.B.C.

Many did not know that Tony was an avid lover of Baseball. He played for the El Dorado Boys Club and also played football while attending Rogers Jr. High. Tony was well known for getting a laugh out of everyone with his stand up jokes. He loved going to Betty's Old Fashion, Chick-A-Dilly (on the east side) and Jr. Benton for meals and of course his drink of choice. Tony May have been an aggravation to some people in his lifetime, but he was truly loved by all. He especially loved his siblings, nieces and nephews. Tony will be missed but remembered with smiles, tears and lots of laughter.
