Gerald Philip Robinson 

Feb. 8, 1923 — Feb. 27, 2006

A memorial Mass will be Saturday for Tracy resident Gerald Philip Robinson, 
83, who died Feb. 27, 2006 at his home.

Mr. Robinson was born in St. Cloud, Minn. He graduated from Castelmont High 
School in Oakland. Because of World War II, he missed out on the chance to 
play football at Stanford; instead he had to work at the Oakland shipyards. He 
came from a strong family line of stonecutters and artists, and was an artist 
in his own right. He retired from the Oakland Parks Department after working 
there for more than 30 years. He was a member of the Columbo Club of Oakland, 
and was a parishioner at St. Leanders Catholic Church in San Leandro, where he 
lived before moving to Tracy four years ago, and at St. Bernard’s Catholic 
Church for the past four years. 

Mr. Robinson is survived by his children, Claire Little, and her husband, 
Jeff, of San Leandro, Phillip Robinson of Sonoma, Christy Deavellar, and her 
husband, James, of Tracy, Mark Robinson, and his wife, Sabrina, of Exeter, and 
Kelly Robinson, and his wife, Trish, of Turlock; grandchildren, Greg Earle of 
Washington, Melissa Earle, and Melanie and Conrad Deavellar, all of Tracy, and 
Elliott Deavellar, serving in Japan; and siblings, Eleanor Kniffon of Walnut 
Creek and George Robinson of Beaverton, Ore.

He was preceded in death by his wife of more than 50 years, Marilyn Robinson.

Saturday’s memorial Mass will begin at 2 p.m. at St. Bernard’s Catholic 
Church, 163 W. Eaton Ave. Interment will be private.

Fry Memorial Chapel, 550 S. Central Ave., is handling arrangements.
