Tony Douglas ROBINSON

November 18, 1959 - January 2, 2024

*Obituary

Tony Douglas Robinson walked into heaven with a smile on his face and a song on his lips January 2, 2024. Tony had a heart bigger than life and he lived life to the fullest every single day. Every day he would enter his office as President of Northeast Arkansas Winwater, singing the latest advertising jingle or any number of songs usually with the wrong words. LOL

Known for his sincere generosity, Tony enriched the lives of every person he met and he never, ever met a stranger. Tony loved to work and enjoyed the challenge of finding things his customers needed. Of course, he also enjoyed having fun. In fact, one of the questions he asked many of his loyal Winwater customers and friends was, ''Have you had any fun lately?''. The most selfless, compassionate, unconditionally loving person, Tony was always concerned about the welfare of all those around him. That may have meant giving a little extra cash, being the best nurse to Rhonda and Ashton, or just sharing that mile wide smile that brought such joy.

As much as he enjoyed work, Tony enjoyed many hobbies as well. His barnyard chickens were such a joy to him as he loved watching their goofy antics. They followed him around just like his sweet golden lab, Katie, who made every step he made around the property. Weekends would find Tony fishing, hunting, camping, playing cards & games with family or ''junking'' with Rhonda. He absolutely loved a ''good bargain'' whether he needed it or not because ''someone might need it.''.

Tony leaves behind to grieve his exit from this life, but to greatly cherish his legacy the following: his wife of 36 years Rhonda (Rogers) of Jonesboro; son, Ashton Robinson of Pottsville; parents, Bill & Wilma Robinson of Wooster; sister, Kim (John) Treece of Clinton; aunt, Kathy (Rick) Watson of Greenbrier; aunt, Sherry Vowell (Don); brother-in-law, Ricky Rogers, Sr. of Stamps; sister-in-law, Teressa (Andy) of Conway; as well as the following: nephew, Hunter Treece and friend, Jess of Conway; nephew, Hayden (Haylee) Treece of Conway; niece, Hallie (Wyatt) Brewer of Greenbrier; niece, Tabitha Buhler (Jeff), Brooklyn and Gavin of Stamps; nephew, Ricky Rogers, Jr. (Sarah), Madison (Jake), Kylie of Stamps; niece, Chelsea (Brian) Bowlin, Barrett and Brianna of Vilonia; niece, Hannah Bollinger and Matthis of Little Rock and niece, Andrea (Mitchell) Pruitt of Fayetteville. Tony has left a host of other friends and customers who will cherish the memories of his antics, nicknames and saying, ''I'm glad you got to see me.'' .

This is not goodbye to our best friend, dad, son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, friend or customer; this is ''See you later on the other side. Wait for us!''.

A Visitation will be held at Central Baptist Church in Conway on Friday, January 5, 2024 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Funeral Services will be held on Saturday, January 6, 2024 at 10:30am at Central Baptist Church in Conway. Burial will follow in Pleasant Valley Cemetery, Wooster.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations in his memory to Conway Christian School, Pleasant Valley Baptist Church, Central Baptist Church or First Freewill Baptist Church in Walnut Ridge, AR.
