Today we honor the passing of a proud son of America, Mr. Keith Allen Robbins. Robbins, 68, of Dalton, Georgia, passed-away on August 23, 2025. Till his last day, Keith carried with him the values of hard work, loyalty, and love of country.
Mr. Robbins was born on March 11, 1957, in East Detroit, Michigan, Keith's journey through life was marked by resilience and a deep love for family, friends, and country. Though he grew up in many cities, Keith's heart and formative years were rooted in New Haven, Indiana. In 2011, he made Dalton, Georgia his home, where he built lasting friendships and memories. On August 11, 2013, Keith, gave his life to God. He was baptized at Temple Baptist Church by Pastor Brett Yeagar, alongside his beloved Roberta Sikkelee Curtin — a glorious day that reflected his acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
Keith and Roberta were married on Memorial Day weekend of 1998 in the scenic beauty of Crow Valley in Dalton, Georgia. Their years together were filled with love, laughter, and shared devotion to family.
Keith lived with a true American spirit — simple yet meticulous, grounded, hardworking, and fiercely loyal. In his youth, he loved ice hockey, earning the nickname "Grease." His passions carried through life: riding Harley Davidson motorcycles (especially his brother Kent's and later his own Screamin' Eagle), collecting exotic cars like his favorite Zanzibar red Porsche, and enjoying card games like Texas Hold'em and blackjack. He also found joy in 70's classic rock and roll, especially the anthem "All Right Now" by Free, which reflected his easygoing nature.
He treasured his lifelong friendships with his childhood companions — Steve Gottfried ("Free"), Gary Gordon ("Gordo"), Randy Lonis, Tom Barfell, Tom Furniss, Steve Screeton and many others from Dellwood Drive — bonds that remained unshakable throughout his life.
Keith was preceded in death by his parents, mother Irene Robbins, and his brother Kent. He is survived by his former wife, Roberta Sikkelee Curtin, and her children: Hunter (and his daughter, Julia Sky), Robert, and Kathryn Curtin.
A man of discipline and dedication, Keith was known for his strong work ethic and attention to detail, whether at his job, on the phone with a friend, or wrenching on a motorcycle or car. He was both guarded and generous, a steady presence to those fortunate enough to be in his inner circle.
Keith is now free of pain and at peace, embraced in the arms of his Savior, reunited with his beloved parents and brother in the Kingdom of Heaven. His ashes have been laid to rest beside his mother in Michigan — a fitting reunion and return to his maternal roots.
Keith blessed, enlighted and improved the lives of all he touched. He is deeply missed by all who graced his energetic presence and who adoringly loved him. His incredible life reflected the proud spirit of America which he so cherished. Keith Allen Robbins lived steadfast for American freedom, loyalty, Justice and un-wavering faith in God — values that will endure in the hearts of those he leaves behind.
