Robin L. Spaulding

Robin L. Justice-Spaulding transitioned to her heavenly home on Saturday, February 17, 2024. Robin was born April 16, 1957, to Robert and Arminta Justice. Robin worked in many occupations ranging from retail, Direct TV phone operator, Director of the women’s shelter at the Huntington City Misson-Project Hope, the first Black female Cabell County school bus driver, but she found her true passion in taking care of children. For the past 20 plus years, Robin dedicated her life to being a daycare provider. She has raised children from infancy to adulthood and not only was she a caregiver to the children but a community mom for the hood. Yes, the Hood! Robin is the only one that could drive down Artisan avenue, see someone and yell, “Pull your pants up and have some respect for yourself!” and they would immediately do so and follow it with a, “Yes Ma’am!” Funny, sounds just like her mother. Robin had that motherly love we all needed and was willing to share it. Whether you were her child or not, she was going to be your mother. Spending the holidays with Robin was always special and if you never had her famous holiday baked Mac n cheese, you missed out. She would spend hours cooking pans of Mac n cheese and dropping them off to her loved ones and anyone that asked for some. Throughout the years, Robin has adopted many names. Mom, Momdukes, Moma Robin, Moma Pooh, Mawmaw, Auntie, Ms. Robin and if you didn’t address her as one of those names, she’d point her finger at you and say in a stern voice, “ It’s Ms. Spaulding to you!” Robin demanded respect and she surely received it. Even if she did not know you, if you needed your hair done, a new outfit, or some encouragement, she’d be sure to let you know. Robin never knew a stranger. Her kind and caring heart towards others was something to admire. She’d spend her mornings driving in her white van, playing music, and seeing who she could help in the community. You’d hear her infamous, “HEY BABY” whenever she was around. Her smile, laughter and quick comebacks would have anyone hooked! Robin spoke with pride when speaking of her three children. Always bragging and giving them praise. She was a proud mother of her own and those who needed someone and made sure everyone knew it. Robin Justice-Spaulding will truly be missed by everyone she had an encounter with. Robin is survived by her brothers Robert Justice, Jr., of Ashland, Ky and David Justice of California. Her children, Israel Gene Spaulding, Jr. (Courtney Spaulding), Arminta M. Spaulding, Aaron M. P. Spaulding, and Ebony Johnson of Huntington, WV. Her grandchildren, Arianna, Trey (David Lee III), Steven, Atiya, Shai, KaSheka, Jimella, Bailee, Elijah, Isrianna, Akiyah, Akeirah, Alayah, Gloria, Calisha, Bryan, Jalin, and Cianna.
