Note: Katherine Mary Robb (as run in the "Lockhaven (Pa,) Express" on 7 Oct 2003) Katherine Mary Robb, 87, a two and a half year resident of Amsterdam, N.Y., was called home to Heaven on Tuesday, July 15, 2003. She was a resident of the Montgomery Meadows Nursing Home, where she passed very peacefully of natural causes. She was born in Albany, N.Y. on May 27, 1916, a daughter of the late Caesar Theodore and Katherine Elizabeth (Schoering) Baldwin. She spent her childhood growing up in Albany, and her favorite childhood pastimes were ice-skating and basketball. After her graduation from Albany High School, class of 1934, Katherine became a legal secretary. Her husband, Dale William Robb, of Jersey Shore, whom she married on April 9, 1937 in Albany, N.Y, preceded her to Heaven on Sept. 26, 1978. Katherine lived the majority of her adult life with her husband and children in Philadelphia. Katherine became a homemaker after her marriage and was a very generous, caring, loving mother. She always did her best to provide for her children�s well-being, making them her number one priority. She was always very thoughtful and wanting to do for others. Katherine lived with her son, Dale and daughter-in-law Linda, for over 20 years after her husband�s death. Her son was in the Air Force, enabling her to live in such beautiful locales as Hawaii, California, Montana and Florida. Katherine especially loved the beautiful islands of Hawaii. Katherine enjoyed reading, watching baseball and old movies on T.V., as well as going out to restaurants. She was an avid fan of both the Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a very warm laugh. Katherine loved all of God�s creatures, especially her �puppies� Queenie and Sheena-Girl. Her father preceded her to Heaven in 1966, her mother in 1969, as well as her two sisters, Clara (Russell) Dayton in 1981 and Loretta (George) Jabbour in 1982. Katherine is survived by her daughters, Catherine Mae (Leonard) Guere of Amsterdam, N.Y. and Joanne Beverly (Jerry) Meisner of Hatfield. She is also survived by her son, Dale Theodore Robb, who later became her daughter, Sabrina Marie Theodora Robb, of Ocala, Fla., as well as five grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A special memorial Mass for Katherine will be celebrated at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2003 in St. Luke�s Catholic Church, Jersey Shore, with Father Andrew Hvozdovic officiating. Katherine�s cremains will be laid to rest alongside her husband in the Jersey Shore Cemetery, Jersey Shore, immediately following Mass. Memorials are suggested in her name to the local Humane Society or A.S.P.C.A. Initial arrangements were provided by the Betz, Rossi and Bellinger Funeral Home, Amsterdam, N.Y.
