Obituary of Robbin Viar

Robbin Salmon Viar, 44, of Lynchburg, passed away Friday, February 19, 2010 at Lynchburg General Hospital, after a sudden illness. She was the wife of Cristopher Scott Viar. Robbin was the most devoted wife, loving Mom and friend to all she met. There are simply no words to say how wonderful of a woman Robbin was. She was so extremely devoted to her family and friends. If you were lucky enough to know Robbin and are thinking of her now-I know there is a smile on your face. She had the most contagious smile. There were simply no strangers in Robbin?s life. If you met her one time, not only did you leave the meeting loving her, you also felt like she was someone you had known for years. We were so blessed by God for having her in our lives. She was the glue that binded it all together. Though we must temporarily say goodbye, we, her family and friends, will attempt to live the rest of our lives through her spirit. We love and miss you dearly. Always and Forever. Robbin was born July 14, 1965 in Lynchburg and was a daughter of Edward Austin Salmon and the late Evelyn F. (Salmon) Harris.
