Great-great grandma is 100
CENTENNIAL-Ina Mae Robbins, born July 10, 1906 in Seward, Neb., celebrates her 100th birthday with Dr. Lorie Robinson in Agoura Hills on Monday. Ina Mae Robbins of Westlake Village recently celebrated an impressive milestone: her 100th birthday. Family and friends gathered at the home of her granddaughter and grandson-inlaw, Cheryl and Skip Toller, to honor Robbins on Sat., July 8.
Robbins was born July 10, 1906 in Seward County, Neb. She lived in Seward until her marriage to Frank Brokaw Robbins in 1925, when she moved to Lincoln, Neb. Two years later, she gave birth to their only child, Virginia.
Frank Robbins was a police officer and later a detective with the Lincoln Police Department.
After Frank Robbins' retirement from the police department, the couple followed their daughter and son-in-law, Don Meyer, to Santa Monica. Shortly thereafter, Frank Robbins died from a heart attack.
Robbins moved to Van Nuys in 1959 when her daughter lived nearby in Sherman Oaks. Robbins worked as an accountant manager at Bullock's department store, retiring in 1973 when she moved to Westlake Village to live with her daughter and son-in-law.
Robbins has three grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and a great-great granddaughter, Savannah Mae Green, born Dec. 12, 2005.
