Robin Lynn Mendica
Robin Lynn Mendica, of St. Louis, MO, joined our heavenly father
on August 13, 2025. Born December 12, 1960, she was the
daughter of Don and Carl Garbs.
Robin will be missed dearly by her many friends and family who
meant so much to her. She is survived by her beloved husband of
47 years, Bubba: her 2 sons, Bobby and Chris: her grandchildren
who brought her so much joy, Jaden, Maeve, and Maxwell; her
sisters, Rita (Greg) Diekemper and Susan (Vince) Monslow; her
brother Mike (Kim) Garbs.
Robin made everyone she knew feel special and loved. She was
fun, compassionate, and brought joy to all who loved her. She had
the biggest heart and was a true friend to anyone who needed her
love.
A celebration of life will be held at Old Hickory Golf Club, on Sept

Our dear friend and next door neighbor for 33 years. Robin was the BEST. We will miss her so very much.
Robin’s big smile matched her tremendous heart. She was such a great wife, mother, and friend. She’s touched so many people, especially us. To say she will be missed would be an understatement.

Robin was the best! She had the biggest heart, was a friend to all, was the life of the party and was simply a wonderful lady.
We miss her deeply.

Robin was one of my BEST friends for 45 years. We met in dental hygiene school and worked together right out of school for 5 years. She left work to have her 2 outstanding sons. Then worked close to home. We always picked up where we left off. Life was a blast with her! Bud and I will miss her so much…her beauty, love, laughter, cooking- boy could she cook! And her genuine friendship. Our heavy hearts go out to Bubba, the BEST husband and father and grandfather and her entire family. Now at peace….we love you, our sweet and special friend.

I will miss you and your laugh at Bunco. Girl you brought sunshine where ever you went. Blessed to have known you.
I knew Robin as my dental hygienist from Dr. Rathgeber’s office. She worked with our whole family and my mom. She was always friendly and I feel like I grew up hearing about her 2 boys and her husband. Our prayers are with her family.

Bob and Family and to all that had the pleasure of having this Beautiful Lady in your lives. Robin was so preciously beautiful inside and out. Her personality shined with humor and honor towards her family and friends. She was ridiculously fun and loved life! Robin never complained and made little of her health issues. This lady loved her husband Soo much and so proud of her family and her fabulous grand children. Robin was an inspiration and an attribute we should all inspire to be . She will shine in Heaven.

She was a wonderful lady and the sweetest person I’ve ever met. She loved a good party and was the LIFE of the party. Sweet and kind to everyone. To Bob and sons may all your memories be of love and laughter. So sorry for your loss.
I have know Robin for over 40 years. She was the maid honor in my wedding. We met while working for a Dentist. I will forever cherish her sweet personality and beautiful smile. We could just pick up where we left off as we both raised our families. Robin was loved by so many and had the heart to share with everyone. She was so proud of her boys and her grandchildren! Steve and I send our greatest sympathy to Bob, their family and friends . Robin and Bob were just a fantastic couple, true love. Hoping that all of your memories shared with Robin will help you through this heartache.
