Her paternal great grandparents were Peter Abraham Deel, III and Isabella Serena Duff.

Bertie was blessed with nine sons: Billy Ray Robinson, John Emmit Robinson, Jerry Don Robinson, James Wesley Robinson, Kenneth Wayne Robinson, Richard Glenn Robinson, Loren Eugene Robinson, Gary Lynn Robinson and Melvin Robinson and seven daughters: Viola Robinson Hillger, Bertie Mae Robinson Wooten, Deanie Robinson Craft, Mary Robinson Hillger, Rebecca Sue Robinson Hale, Betty Irene Robinson Davis and Deborah Robinson Sandoval.

She died on Thursday, January 21, 1982 at 8:25pm. She was 70 years old.
My Aunt Bertie and her husband had a farm outside of Garden City, Texas. I always loved to go and visit them there. There is no better place for a kid to be than on a farm or ranch. Most of what we would eat at their dinner table came from what was raised or grown on the farm. It was at their farm that I milked my first and last cow!
