Funeral services will be held at 3:00pm Wednesday, December 21, 2016 at the Louis Memorial Chapel, 6830 Troost, Kansas City, MO. Burial at Mt. Carmel Cemetery. Kindly omit flowers. The family suggests contributions to Kansas City Hospice, 12000 Wornall Rd., Kansas City, MO 64145 or Hadassah Greater Kansas City, 12008 Horton, Apt.56, Overland Park, KS 66209. Toby was born October 17, 1938 to the late Max and Marian Shapiro in Kansas City, MO. She graduated from Paseo High School in 1956 and she was a graduate of Draughon’s College of Commerce. She worked for several years as a legal secretary. She possessed excellent skills. She married Walter Robbins in 1961 and they celebrated their 55th anniversary on November 25th, 2016. Toby and Walter lived on Long Island, NY for many years where they raised their children. Later they moved to South Carolina where family and friends would often come to visit. Toby was an avid reader and an accomplished cook who happily shared her recipes. She enjoyed all types of music and being near the water. She was an expert seamstress and took pride in making almost all of her own clothes. Over the years, Toby and Walter participated in 14 Elder Hostel programs at varied locations where work study and recreation were combined. Toby is survived by her husband, Walter, siblings: Rita Shapiro and Sandra Golden of Kansas City, Martin Shapiro of Chevy Chase, MD, brother and sister-in-laws: Steve and Fran Robbins of Newtown, PA and Dan and Joyce Schleifer of Brick, NJ. There are two children: Alan Robbins and Jill Goldberg, three grandchildren and numerous nephews and nieces. When Toby laughed, we all laughed. Toby was loved and will be very much missed.
