Obituary: Robyn Faye Levine

Robyn Faye Levine, born on May 23, 1959, peacefully passed away at the age of 64. She is survived by her devoted husband, Neil Schlossberg, and her cherished children: Aaron Benjamin & wife, Mariana Benjamin, along with their adored daughters, Alice and Lilith; daughter, Mollie Benjamin; and son, Max Benjamin. She is also survived by her bonus children, Chelsea and Ryan Schlossberg, and her beloved bonus grandchildren, Kaydence, and Charlie.

Robyn was born and raised in Atlanta, Ga., to parents Marilyn and Daniel Levine, and was a loving sister to Jodie Koretz, Sharon Kraun, Donna Cohen, and Alan Levine. The unexpected loss of their mother in 1972 forged a unique bond among the siblings.

From a young age, she demonstrated her musical prowess, playing the clarinet in elementary school and later mastering the saxophone, flute, and various other instruments during her high school and college years at the University of Georgia. Following graduation, Robyn continued her musical journey by actively participating in the Atlanta Concert Band for nearly three decades.
