MURRAY WAYNE ROBINSON
Murray Wayne Robinson, 76, of Mexia passed away, peacefully, on April 17, 2021, in Mexia.
Wayne was born on January 23, 1945, in Streetman, to Randall Lewis and Daisy Murphy Robinson.
He began his professional career after high school with the railroad, an occupation that spanned over thirty years. Wayne retired from Burlington Northern Railroad as an engineer.
After retirement, Wayne enjoyed just being at home, after so many years on call and away when duty summoned. Wayne was an avid sports fan, newspaper reader and history buff. He also enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, such as watching the flowers grow and the birds sing in his yard that he helped Patsy maintain. Always an organized person, he loved things to be in their place.
He was a member of the Word of Life Family Worship Center.
Wayne was preceded in death by his parents, Randall and Daisy Robinson.
