David R. Robinson
June 19, 1954 – November 5, 2024

David R. Robinson, age 70, passed away peacefully on November 5, 2024, surrounded by his loving family. David was a devoted husband, father, brother, and grandfather, whose warmth and laughter filled every room he entered.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Frances, and his cherished children: daughter Natalie Roller and her husband, Bill, with grandchildren Grant and Lauren; and son Nathan and his wife, Stacy, with grandchildren Parker and Claire. David is also remembered by his brothers, Steve (and wife Chris), Jeff (and partner Dale), and Gary (and wife Laura), who share in the deep loss felt by his passing.

David was the proud owner of East Ohio Furnace, where he was respected and admired for his dedication and work ethic. Outside of work, he had a passion for classic cars, racing, traveling, and cherished time spent at “the Roost.” David was known for his kindness, generosity, humor, and quick wit—traits that endeared him to all who knew him. His warmth and laughter were a light to his family and friends, and he will be deeply missed.

A celebration of David’s life will be held on November 29, 2024, at the Elm Ridge Event Center, 469 Elm Ridge Ave, Canal Fulton, OH 44614, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Family and friends are welcome to join in honoring a life well-lived and a man well-loved. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation in David’s honor, supporting families of fallen and injured first responders and veterans.
