Born to this union, were Cherri, Vernetta, Gertrude, Martha, Linda, and James. In 1971, Theresa moved her family to Denver, Colorado, where she later, became the mother of Twila D. Dickens. One precious memory her children will always remember is her saying, "You know who's the boss, don't forget!" Mother Robinson had lots of names from her grand, great grand, and great-great-grandchildren. She was “Momma Clark,” “Grandma Ree,” “Big Momma,” “Grandma,” and “Grammy.” She loved it because she loved and cherished them all. Mother Robinson also loved and cherished her church family. She was a mother of 10 who loved, cared for and guided each to their own personalities and lead them with the word of Christ. She worked hard to ensure they had. At an early age, Mother Robinson accepted Jesus Christ into her life. She would have church service at her home while in Chicago, Illinois. When she lived in St. Louis, Missouri, she would attend services at night, because she had to work early shifts. After moving to Denver, she devoted 35 years to Christian Corp. Fellowship (Also known as Here's Love Christian Center) under the Pastoral leadership of Pastor Russell Porter, Sr. and the late Rose Porter. She was the Mother of the Church and prayer intercessor until her sunset. Mother Robinson was a Nurse, by profession. In St. Louis, she worked at Homer G. Philip Hospital. After she moved to Denver, she worked at Rose Hospital. She worked in film at Western Cinema, and later she specialized in home health care until she retired.
