“Champ” Robinson
Remembered By Mother Olin “Champ” Robinson of Edna loved life. He wasn’t selfish with his time and loved spending time with his three children, Marques, 7, Mercedes, 3, and Mia, 3 months. Many family members and friends showed their respect for Robinson and celebrated his life Nov. 23 at the Shiloh Baptist Church in Edna. Olin was a champ in his mother Kimerla Robinson’s eyes. She said he was a loving father and was friendly to everyone. Many businesses and locals have sent their condolences to the Robinson family. Kimerla Robinson said businesses have donated food and other items to the family during this difficult time. She said the family didn’t realize how many lives Olin Robinson had touched, until now. “I know he was looking down and seeing all of the people who loved him,” his mother said. “He had so many true friends. Every one of them is here for him.” Kimerla Robinson said Mercedes sometimes looks into the sky and says she can’t see her father. Marques’ friends tell him that they knew and loved his father, too. Then they hug him, she said. Edna Police said Olin “Champ” Robinson, 29, was stabbed to death by his cousin, Almaad Robinson, 21, during an altercation at a birthday party. Kimerla Robinson said Almaad Robinson came to the birthday party uninvited. He had sneaked into the party and stabbed Olin Robinson twice. Olin “Champ” Robinson died on Sunday, Nov. 17 at the Jackson County Hospital. Edna Police Chief Clinton Wooldridge said Almaad turned himself in to Jackson County authorities at 10:37 a. m. on Nov. 17. He faces charges of first-degree felony murder. Kimerla Robinson said Almaad Robinson had broken into her parents’ home a month ago. Champ found him there and asked him why he broke into the house and told him to show more respect. Then Almaad Robinson attacked him with a knife, stabbing him. Kimerla Robinson said Almaad wouldn’t let it go, but her son did. She said Champ was murdered for nothing and the whole thing was a senseless act. She said Champ didn’t bother anyone and always put others first. He didn’t expect anything from anyone. She said Champ shone wherever he went. She said Champ was her first child and was spoiled because of it. He leaves many wonderful memories behind, Kimerla Robinson said. She said Champ grew up into a man and that she was very proud of him. “I’m going to love him and miss him,” Kimerla Robinson said. His cousin Patrice Blake said Champ was a good person who had a good heart. She, too, will have fond memories of him. “I would just like to say that my cousin was a fun, loving man, he loved his children dearly and took very good care of them,” Blake said. “He was more hands-on that most men I have ever seen. He loved playing dominoes, listening to music and chilling with our family. Champ was a very respectful man. If he saw a woman with too much stuff he would come take it out of their hands, pack their groceries, give them a ride to the store. A real gentleman! He had so much life to give and really stepped up to help my Uncle “Pig” and keep up with the house. We are deeply saddened and no one can fill this void.”
