Robin was a very devoted mother and grandmother. Her love for her family knew no bounds. Even outside of her circle, she was someone that would always put others needs before her own. Her caring nature is what led her into the nursing field. Robin worked as a Registered Nurse for 30 years and worked for Compass Behavioral Health in New Iberia, LA.  Those that were honored enough to have worked with her could attest to Robin’s professionalism and work ethic. She could be remembered as funny, lovely, generous, caring and loved by all that met her.

In her spare time, Robin enjoyed painting in her art studio or listening to music. She found her strength in the lyrics from one of her favorite musicians, Lauren Daigle. Robin was a true Angel on earth and now is an Angel in Heaven. She will always be remembered as a devoted wife, auntie, sister and friend, who will be deeply missed.

She is survived by her husband of 14 years, Dale L. Riggleman, of Opelousas, LA.; her step-daughters, Garnet Ramey of Carmel, Indiana; and Jennifer Berry-Fleming and husband, Cody of Hartwell, Georgia.
