Kent was a man known for his skilled hands and friendly service. He was a talented mechanic who could fix just about anything, and he served his community faithfully as a postal carrier. Beyond his professional life, Kent had a knack for growing delicious tomatoes in his tomato houses, sharing his bounty with many. His passion for bluegrass music filled his life with joy, and its lively tunes were a constant source of pleasure for him.

He was preceded in death by his two Sons, Joey  Robbins and Chris  Robbins;  Father, Simeon Dewitt Robbins;  Mother, Tammar  Walters Robbins;  Grandchild, Eric  Magee;  three Brothers, Elbert Robbins, Doye Robbins and Clayton Robbins;  Sisters, Wydell King, Wannell Davis and Lillie Don Broom.

He is survived by his Daughter, Teresa Magee (Darrel);  three Grandchildren, Justin  Robbins, Austin  Robbins and Jessica Briggs  (T. J. );  three Brothers, Jerry  Robbins  (Mary Frances), Willis Robbins and Grady  Robbins (Katherine);  five Great Grandchildren, Aubrie  Robbins, Kristyn Robbins, Jacob Robbins, Gunner  Briggs and Harley Briggs; and a host of  nieces, nephews and cousins.
