May 6, 1943 ~ May 28, 2010
On May 28th, 2010 we said goodbye to our beloved mother, wife and "nanny" as she was known by her four grandsons. Born on May 6th, 1943 in Hindman , Kentucky Robin was raised in Wheaton Illinois by Grace (Shanks) & Jack Faulkner. On December 13th, 1968 she married Fred Mahnesmith of Buda , Illinois where they settled into the "big porch" house on main street. Over the next 42 years, on any given holiday or season of the year Robin would demonstrate her special gift of creativity as the porch became a "community decoration" for all to share. Robin took particular joy in being a devoted and loving mother and wife who''s passions included spending time with her family, creating beautiful things, painting, interior decorating, her vast collection of antiques and reading endless books. We will miss her one of a kind personality, her strength, wit and endless wisdom. Preceeded in death by her mother Grace Faulkner and her twin sons Fred & Ted Mahesmith, Robin is survived by husband Fred Mahnesmith, daughters Robin (Mahnesmith) Garrison and Rhonda (Mahnesmith) Noonan, four grandchildren, Stephen Garrison, Carl Garrison, Dallas Garrison and Nicklaus Noonan, two sisters Barbara Guthrie and Kathy Daniels, two brothers, Mike (Karyn) Faulkner and Pete (Susanne) Faulkner.
