Robyn Clifford

Robyn Clifford passed away on Sunday, September 27, 2020 at the Redbud Village Nursing Home in Plainville, Kansas, at the age of 76.

She was born on October 4, 1943 to Robert and Vivian (Freeman) Keiser in Glendale, California.

Robyn spent her early years moving around the world due to her father’s affiliation with the United States Military. She battled many illnesses at a young age but never let that affect her work or the care she gave to others. Robyn found a home in Henderson, Nevada where she spent a few years working in a nursing home and met and fell in love with a co-worker, Donald Clifford. The couple were united in marriage on February 14, 1992, in Henderson at the nursing home, in which they worked, so the residents could attend. They later relocated to the Rooks County area where she and Donald spent the rest of their lives.

Robyn was a woman of faith with a huge heart that overflowed with love for family, friends, the elderly she cared for, and even the stray cats she took into her care. A beacon of light, her charismatic and bubbly personality radiated from her heart to everyone she met. She never knew a stranger and jumped at the opportunities to help anyone. She donated vehicle loads of clothing to the Pine Ridge Reservation; it was by this daily example of living that she taught all of us what it truly means to love and care for one another, and live every day being grateful for the opportunity to humbly serve one another.

Robyn is survived by her daughter, Leeann of Florida; stepdaughter, Naomi Clifford of Oklahoma; step-sons, Jamie Thompson of Nevada and Andy Clifford of Arizona; close friend, Kayla Desbien of Plainville; one grandchild; and several step-grandchildren and step-great-grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Vivian Keiser; husband, Donald Clifford; and sister Roberta Keiser.

There will be no public services.
