VALE

This morning at 9.15am EDST, Monday the 18 January 2021. The world became a sadder place and contains a great void in the hearts of many.

It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to inform all of the passing of:-

Raymond C. ROBINSON

“Robbo”

19/08/1953 – 18/01/2021

Registered No: 16203

Sergeant Retired, New South Wales Police Force

Class No: 138 14/01/1974 – 25/02/1974 Attested Pro/Constable

25/02/1975 Confirmed to Constable

25/02/1979 Promoted to Constable 1st Class

25/02/1983 Promoted to Senior Constable

Promoted to Sergeant 1989

Section 66 Inspector

What can I say Robbo was a close friend to myself and many others and a brother of the Thin Blue Line. He will be sadly missed by one and all even those that did not have the honour of meeting him in person. He was a larger than life character and a mentor to many in Law Enforcement and the Motorcycling world.

Robbo has ridden on ahead to check the roads and rides for those of us that will eventually join him.

R.I.P Brother, Til Valhalla

Funeral arrangements will be posted once they come to hand. Please keep Fay, Ashley and Robbo’s extended family in your thoughts and prayers at this of saddest time.
