He was born to Cecil and Helen (Weeks) Robinson on April 29, 1936 in Blaine, Kansas. Cecil went to grade school in Trask, MO in a one-room schoolhouse, and went to high school in Mountain View, MO.  He was a member of the First Baptist Church in Grandview, MO for 50 years, serving as an ordained deacon and driving a bus for Children's Church.  He later moved his membership to Harrisonville Faith Baptist Church.  Cecil was united in marriage to Stella Mae Zimmerman on November 3, 1956 in Grandview, MO. He was employed as a lead man on the header line at AGCO in Independence, MO, where he retired on September 1, 1996.

He was dedicated to the Boy Scout Program, spending time at Boy Scouts summer camp, serving as counselor and attending weekly meetings.  Both of his sons and one of his grandsons became Eagle Scouts. Cecil loved fly fishing, going on annual fishing trips with his daughter and grandchildren.  He also enjoyed deer hunting with his 2 sons.  He and Stella had a lot of fun traveling across the states, visiting as many historical places as they could in their 5th wheel.

Cecil is survived by his three children, Steven Robinson (Heather), of Olathe, KS, David Robinson, of Grandview, MO, and Laura Smith (Kirk), of Olathe, KS; his sister, Marian; four grandchildren and two great grandchildren.  He was preceded in death by his parents; his loving wife, Stella, on July 17, 2019; four brothers and one sister.
