Harpswell-Betty Robinson Sanford, 83, heard the angels singing and decided to join her heavenly family on Wednesday January 13, 2021. We are quite sure her brother, “Nunny,” who passed away in World War II, was leading the chorus as Betty was singing “Comin’ in on a Wing and a Prayer” just hours before. She truly believed in the lord and his guardian angels so it’s interesting that she picked that song, as she would have only been 8 years old at the end of the war.
Born March 2, 1937, she was the only daughter, born 9 years after the last of 3 sons, to Gloria (Gagnon) and Lawrence Robinson. Formerly of Old Turner Road in Auburn, Betty lived most of her adult life in West Bath and Brunswick.
Betty’s greatest gift was her ability to love so completely. Hugs and kisses were always free flowing to all she met. It is a legacy that will be handed down for generations as her children, grandchildren and now great-grandchildren will all remember her genuine, adoring love. Betty delighted in making people laugh and could tell a story that lasted all day! She was truly loved by all.
Betty joyfully rejoins her predeceased parents, and 3 brothers Lawrence (Nunny) Robinson Jr, Arthur M. Robinson, and Robert E. Robinson.
She will be sadly missed by her adoring children, a son, Raymond Schram of Freeport, three daughters, Vicki Hopkins of Brunswick, Julie Schram of San Diego, CA, and Maria Renaud and her husband Lawrence “Bud” Renaud of Harpswell, two grandchildren Chelsey and her husband Chris Weeks and Max Renaud with his partner César Negrette, and two of the most loved great-grandchildren, Lawson and Leona Weeks along with her two very special sister-in-laws, favorite nieces, handsome nephews and many cousins.
