Ola Elizabeth “Liz” Robinson went to be with her Heavenly Father on Wednesday, December 16, 2020. She was 80 years old. Elizabeth was born July 13, 1940 in Sarepta, Louisiana to the late Grady L. Brown and Lura (Moore) Brown Flow. After high school and vocational school graduation, she married Earl Robinson in 1962 and moved to Oklahoma City. They adopted Todd in 1972 and moved to Magnolia, Arkansas, in 1993 to care after her mother. Elizabeth retired after having been employed for TG&Y for 18 years and Walmart for 25 years.
Elizabeth was an active member of Jackson Street Church of Christ where she taught the 3-4 year olds for 20 years. She would spend numerous hours each week on crafts in preparation for each Sunday’s lesson, even continuing to make the crafts for years after she retired from teaching. Elizabeth loved Jesus, her church and singing hymns. She also enjoyed preparing food for the homeless and extending a warm welcome to Southern Arkansas University students who were from out of town. One of her favorite times was going to feed the burrow at SAU.
She is preceded in death by her husband of 57 years Earl Robinson, her parents, brothers Gene Brown and Howard Brown, and sister Brenda Brock. She is survived by her son Todd (Stephanie) Robinson of Magnolia, grandchildren Bradlee (Casey) Robinson of Hartford, Arkansas, and Janessa (Dakota) Shearman of Fort Polk, Louisiana, two great grandchildren Kaden and Karson Robinson, brother Clyde Brown of Gilmer, Texas, sister Marie (Robbie) Linn of Little Rock, Arkansas, and as well a host of nieces, nephews, many relatives, special friends and neighbors.
The family is thankful for the care Elizabeth received from the staffs at Wentworth Place and Encompass Health-Hospice of Magnolia.
