SERVICES FOR MARGARET A. ROBINSON

Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

We were very sad to hear the news that Margaret Robinson passed away.  Arrangements are as follows: Tuesday, February 7, 2012 at Holy Name of Mary Church, 110 Grand Street, Croton-on-Hudson - Margaret was a true Renaissance woman, a published botanical illustrator, a gifted artist, a member of the American Society of Botanical Artists and the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators, involved with the Croton Shakespeare company and more; she was also an active parishioner at Holy Name of Mary Church where she served for many years as a Lector. In fact, it was Margaret who first told us about the botanical ephemera available at The Cornelia Cotton Gallery, sparking a life-long love of vintage botaniciana. RIP Margaret.
