Obituary of Johanna G. Robbins

Johanna G. Robbins, age 83, of East Norriton, PA passed away peacefully on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 23, 2023. 

She was born in Conshohocken, PA on November 1, 1940, the daughter of the late John "Jack" and Catherine "Grace" (Tompkins) McGuire.

Johanna lived in Conshohocken until moving to East Norriton in 1969.  She was a member of St. Titus RC Church. Her close family, many friends, the East Norriton community and her Conshohocken roots were her heart and soul. She loved bowling in her early days with family, being a devoted wife to Paul and stay-at-home mom to Jonathan. She loved spending time at the Jersey shore with family, Sudoku puzzle books and passing the days away by chatting on the phone with friends. She had a kind, patient and supportive spirit; always giving so much of herself while asking for so little in return. 

She was the wife of the late Paul L. Robbins of Norristown. They would have celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary this year. 

She is survived by her only son, Jonathan M. (Shelley) Robbins of Collegeville, PA; sister, Patricia (John) Garrison of Peabody, MA; and two granddaughters, Erin and Megan Robbins. 

Along with her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, John "Jackie" McGuire.  

Her Memorial Service will be held on Friday, December 15, 2023 at 10:30 AM from the Moore, Snear & Ruggiero Funeral Home, 19 East Germantown Pike, East Norriton, PA 19401.  Relatives and friends are invited to the visitation on Friday, December 15 from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM at the Funeral Home.  

Committal will follow in St. Patrick's Mausoleum, East Norriton, PA. Luncheon to follow services, all who loved her are welcome. 

Johanna’s two grand-daughters, Erin and Megan, meant the world to her. In honor of her wishes, in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions would be so appreciated in Johanna's name to their 529 college plans.
