Obituary

Robin Kay (Howard) Kinstler, a devoted mother, sister, and friend, passed away on September 15, 2025, at the age of 37.

Born on February 25, 1988, in Corona, California, Robin lived a life defined by love, laughter, and the joy she found in simple moments. She enjoyed good food, long walks, the outdoors, and most of all, the company of friends and family. Her laughter was infectious, her presence comforting, and her stubborn but loving spirit left a lasting impression on everyone she met.

Robin’s greatest joy and purpose in life were her children. She was the proud mother of Kelsy, Destiny, Caily, and Trinity, and the loving stepmother of Abigail. In motherhood, she found her peace—always validating her children’s feelings, making sure they knew they were deeply loved, and celebrating every milestone with a full heart. Some of her proudest moments were the days her children were born, moments she carried as treasures throughout her life.
Though she spent most of her years as a stay-at-home mom, Robin also worked various jobs over the years, always putting her resilience and strong work ethic to use. She was known for her kindness, her fierce determination, and the way she gave love so freely.

Robin is survived by her children; her sisters and brothers, Virgil, Tom, Albert, Rosanna, and Wyatt, and countless friends who cherished her.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Daniel, with whom she now reunites, and her mother.

To know Robin was to be reminded of the beauty of everyday life: shared meals, walks under open skies, heartfelt conversations, and laughter that could lighten even the heaviest day. She will be remembered for the love she gave and the family she built, a legacy that lives on in her children.
