Robin Warrenetta Jackman began her earthly journey when on January 31,1966 our God delivered her with the breath of life to the proud parents, Warren Thomas and Robbie M. Coure Jackman. Robin was born in New York, New York at Sydeham Hospital. Preceding in transition were her grandparents, Gerald Jackman and Juliett Parham and Robert and Narcissus Coure. Robin was suddenly and tragically taken from her earthly walk on March 11, 2018.
Robin accepted Jesus Christ her savior at a very early age at John Wesley United Methodist Church. At the age of 12 years, she joined the John Wesley Methodist Gospel Chorus. She has worked faithfully in many ministries, including but not limited to the Youth Usher Board, the United Methodist Youth Fellowship, the United Methodist Women, and the ‘Sisters in the Spirit’ Sunday School Class.
Robin received her education in the Nashville Public Schools, attending Fall-Hamilton Elementary, John Trotwood Moore Junior High, and Hillsboro High School. After high school graduation, she began studies at Tennessee State University. She then began working as a Customer Service Representative with Tennessee Managed Care Network and Access Med-Plus.
Robin married John E. Broadway, Sr. in July 1995. Their union was blessed with John E., Jr. and Jonae’ Narcissus Broadway. In March 2001, Robin re-married. Her marriage to Roland Maurrice Jenkins produced two more children, Amiya Marie and Roland Maurrice Jenkins, Jr.
She loved music, hanging out with her cousins Lisa, Montgomery (Monty), Warner Lee, and friends. She also enjoyed getting her hair and nails done and shopping for shoes and purses.
