Ervine was strong by adversity, a supportive family, extended family and friends. At age three Ervine's mother, Frieda Aebker Meyer died. Her father Ervin Meyer was unable to care for her so her maternal grandparents, Ida Sinker Aebker and Diedrich W. Aebker, adopted her. Not long after Ida and Ervine was raised by Deidrich, aunts and uncles who lived nearby the northeast corner of Madison Avenue and Raymond Street, the house was tore down in the 1950's to make way for an underpass. Upon graduation from Manual Training High School Ervine worked for Holiday Steel, later Jones Laughlin Steel, where she became a valued employee in the bookkeeping department. In 1955, Ervine and John Robbins were married and resided on Monticello Drive with Diedrich who died in 1957. Shortly after John's death in 1996, Ervine contracted neuropathy, which confined her to a wheel chair. Recently she suffered with complications of a flu shot reaction, stroke, pneumonia, bladder infection and finally cancer, which took her life. Through all of these adversities Ervine maintained a marvelous sense of humor, sharpness of mind and intellect, interest in books and closeness to those dear to her. She had a strong sense of right and wrong, strong likes, and dislikes in people. |
