Tribute To Mrs.
Luke Robinson, Sr.
On November 5, 1960, Mrs.
Emma Armstrong Robinson
peacefully closed her eyes and
went home where suffering is
not known. “Miss Emma”, as
she was called by those who
knew and loved her, was born
on October 17, 1870, in Gre
shamville, Georgia.
She attended school in Gre
i shamville and later taught mu
sic there. In 1893 she married
1 Dr. Luke Robinson and moved
to Walnut Grove. Six child
■ ren came to bless this union.
The Robinsons came to Cov
ington in 1903. Soon after com
ing to Covington Miss Emma
joined the Covington Woman’s
Club and as a member of the
Building Committee worked
untiringly to secure funds to
build the Club Building. Until
her health failed she was an
active member and contribut
ed her talents in many ways to
the club. When her health and
eyesight prevented her atten
dance at the Club she was
i made an Honorary Member.
Miss Emma and six others
. organized the Chrysanthemum
’ dub, which later became the ■
First Garden Club. Among the -
other organizations to which
Miss Emma belonged and was
an active member are the
D A R., U.D.C. and W.C.T.U.
I She was a member of the First
Methodist Church and served
as Secretary of the Woman’s
Missionary Society for a num
ber of years. She was active in
all Church affairs.
Miss Emma possessed a beau
tiful nature, refined and cul
tured. and with the passing
years the sweetness of her life
I deepened even in the face of
actual suffering.
Miss Emma loved her family,
her town and county, her
church, and her many, many
friends.
She was a wonderful friend,
a wonderful neighbor, and
' to know her was to love her.
