Robin Ann Bigalke October 20, 1973 - June 18, 2026 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved Robin Ann Bigalke, who left this world on June 18, 2026, at the age of 52. Born on October 20, 1973, in Rochester, NY, Robin was a beacon of warmth and light, surrounded by her cherished friends and family as she transitioned peacefully in her sleep. Robin was the beloved daughter of Milton and Carol Evans, who predeceased her, along with both sets of grandparents and her dear brother. Her loving spirit will continue to shine through her surviving family: her devoted partner, John; her treasured children, Carolyn and Jordan; and a host of other family members and close friends who were privileged to share in her journey. A proud veteran, Robin served with honor in the United States Navy, demonstrating her dedication and commitment to her country. After her military service, she found her calling in customer service, a field she often remarked required a special kind of person. Her ability to connect with others and her unwavering patience made her a natural in her profession. Robin's faith was a cornerstone of her life. She was a devoted member of Awaken Church, where she served the God she loved so profoundly. Her faith community was a second family to her, and she found great joy and solace in her spiritual journey. With a personality as vibrant as her smile, Robin possessed a remarkable sense of humor that was unmatched. She had a unique gift for diffusing tension with her quick wit and infectious laughter, lighting up every room she entered. Her generosity of spirit was evident in her willingness to help others without ever expecting anything in return. Robin cherished the simple pleasures of life. Her three favorite pastimes were eating, sleeping, and watching TV, each enjoyed with a contented heart. She also found joy in listening to music, taking leisurely walks outdoors, and spending precious moments with her beloved pets, Stella and Mow Mow. These activities brought her peace and happiness, as did the time spent with her family and friends. A private funeral ceremony will be held to honor Robin's life, respecting her wishes and the intimate bonds she shared with those closest to her. In celebrating Robin's life, we remember her as someone who lived with love, laughter, and an enduring faith. Her legacy is one of compassion, humor, and unwavering kindness, leaving an indelible mark on all who were fortunate enough to know her. May she rest in peace, forever carried in our hearts.
