In Memoriam
The following was written by Kathy Louise Schuit for the February 2023 issue of SouthWest Sage.
Robin Lynn Perini was a member, supporter and frequent speaker for SWW, with her most recent presentation taking place in November 2022. Robin passed away on January 10, 2023 after a short illness.
The author of 16 mystery romance novels with more than a million copies sold, Robin, nevertheless, busted all the stereotypes of a romance author. Her obituary details her many academic accomplishments as well as her literary success. Robin was Valedictorian of her Hobbs, NM high school class, earned a degree in biochemistry from the University of Oklahoma, and attended the University of New Mexico School of Medicine for three years before deciding to become a writer. She also obtained a master’s degree in Business Management Technology, held down a full-time job at Sandia Laboratories, and cared for her ailing mother through a lengthy illness.
Social media manager Maegan Marshall posted a final message to Robin’s Facebook account:
“It is hard to say goodbye to Robin, as she has been an amazing friend and client for the past nine years. Though we are having to say goodbye to Robin, we can smile knowing her writings will live on forever. Please take a moment to send a prayer to the Perini family during this difficult time.
This will be the final post under this account. Please take a moment to leave a comment in her memory or about one of her novels; she would have loved reading them all.”
Eight days before her death, Robin was still marketing books on her Facebook page. Current posts register disbelief at her sudden passing:

It is with great sadness that I must tell you Author Robin Perini has died at the young age of fifty-seven. She was a wonderful author, a super-intelligent woman, one of the kindest human beings I’ve ever known, a sister-of-the-heart to many, and one of my closest friends. ~ Angi Morgan
A memorial service for Robin was held on January 28, 2023 at St. Stephens United Methodist Church in Albuquerque. The full obituary is available HERE, and condolence comments may be made on her Facebook page.
