NWBroadcasters reports: Carole Robinson, wife of veteran Vancouver broadcaster Red Robinson, passed away Wednesday morning at St. John Hospice at the University of B.C. in Vancouver.
She was involved in Red’s broadcasting work during most of his career.
Carole Robinson is well known by many Vancouver broadcasters both past & present. For many years now Red & Carole along with Northwest broadcasters webmaster Gord Lansdell have been hosting a twice yearly luncheon & get-together for Vancouver’s current & past broadcasters (much like the OFC in Seattle) which has been a wonderful opportunity for everyone to reminisce or make connections with past & present workers. Carole has always been a warm & gracious hostess at these luncheons & many of us have been touched by Carole’s presence. Very sorry to learn about this & as with many, our thoughts are with Red & their family.
Very depressing news. Thank you for sharing it, but I honestly cannot say I like this post. Been listening to Red since I got on line in 2003. Been reading about him since the 80,s Very sorry to hear this. He and his family are in our thoughts.
