It is with heavy hearts that the family of Robin L. Doughty announces her passing on December 29, 2024 at the age of 52. Born in Rochester, NY on February 24, 1972, Robin was predeceased by her beloved husband, Dennis P. Doughty, a talented plastics engineer.
Robin is survived by her loving parents, Ronald and Rosemarie Warcup of Boynton Beach, Florida, sisters Kristin Santoroski (Joseph) of Frederick, Maryland, Amy Warcup (Barron Naegel) of Rochester New York and nephews Adam and Keegan Santoroski.
As a little girl, Robin enjoyed visiting her Nana in New Jersey and spending quality time with her older sisters on her Grandparents dairy farm near Rome NY. She had so much fun learning to make Hungarian pastries with Nana, taking tractor rides in the pasture with Grandpa and sorting and packing eggs with Grandma.
Robin was an accomplished student who achieved many milestones in her life. She was in the inaugural program for gifted students in Spencerport Central Schools. She graduated from Fairport H.S. in 1990 and went on to obtain her Bachelors degree from SUNY Brockport.
Robin had several jobs before ultimately deciding to continue her education. She worked at Washtenau Community College in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the University of Massachusetts and eventually for Roads Scholar in Boston (formerly Elderhostel) where she developed a keen interest in travel. Robin returned to her studies and in 2010 she earned her Masters Degree from the University of Rochester. Then she went to work helping students at the University of Rochester as the Coordinator for Off Campus Housing.
Robin had many interests and talents. She was an avid reader and birder and loved being fashionable, sometimes even modeling designer dresses at her friends dress shop in Boston. She had a keen interest in art and was a member of the Memorial Art Gallery. Robin would lovingly recall the many cherished trips she took with her husband: notably, honeymooning in Hawaii and trips to Hungary, Germany, Monaco and Grenada.
Robin had a fondness for all animals and she volunteered at several shelters in the Rochester area. She especially loved her two Chow Chow dogs. Over the years, Mr. Seaver and Chou Chou were her constant companions.
Robin had an enormous sweet tooth. She loved everything sweet: desserts of all kinds, ice cream, strawberries, gummy candies and especially Hedonist chocolates!
Robin was a “people person” who made many loyal and devoted friends wherever she lived. She was witty and had a keen sense of humor. She liked having a good time and she was so much fun to be with. She enjoyed taking her parents to unique places: Joe’s Stone Crab in Miami Beach on opening day of stone crab season, the world famous Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland in Michigan and to see the Budweiser Clydesdale horses in New Hampshire.
Robin was a very thoughtful person and always a loving and proud daughter. She regularly sent cards and texts telling her parents how much she loved them, that she was proud to be their daughter and thanked them for a wonderful childhood.
Robin was loved by her family and friends and will be deeply missed. Her courage and resilience will continue to inspire us.
A Memorial celebration of Robin’s life will be held on Saturday, June 7, 2025 at 11AM at First Universalist Church of Rochester, 150 Clinton Avenue South, (corner of Clinton Ave and Court St) Rochester New York.
Contributions in Robin’s memory may be made to: Lollypop Farm, 99 Victor Rd., Fairport, NY 14450

Robin was a cherished friend for so many years. We met in 9th grade and became fast friends. She was one of the funniest, smartest and kindest people I have known. She will be greatly missed. All my love to the family.
During her high school years, Robin was a very frequent presence in our home as she was one of Abbey’s best friends. She was so lively and smart! She went with our family on a trip to SanDiego and Mexico one time, so I can attest to her love of travel. She was always so interested in things, especially anything new. I saw her not long ago and she was very much the same as I remembered her from those long ago high school days. She will be missed.
I was looking for a different obit and saw Robin’s. I’m so shocked. I knew Robin when she lived in Penfield in Newbury Park. I loved her spirit. So kind and loving. My hear breaks for all of you who were close to her.

Robin was a very kind and smart person. I will always be grateful to her for being such a good friend to my mom. I enjoyed seeing her and talking with her whenever she came over to see us. I am sorry for your loss, she will always be in our hearts and our memories.
Robin was a beautiful person who will be missed by our family . Her parents were the first couple outside the family we met when I moved here. When Robin was born, Anthony and I were proud to be her Godparents. Our families were close and my son actually took her to the Prom!
We’re heartbroken as Robin wanted to move to Florida with her parents . She told me the last time I saw her. We enjoyed going to dinner when her parents came to town .
Robin had a difficult time after her husband Dennis passed away. It was not the same happiness she had before as they were a great couple together. At least they are together now.
With Loving Memories,
I didn’t see this until today, 2/10/25 and had no idea that this posted. Robin was my beloved little sister. I have so many memories of Robin both from our childhood and as adults. Sisters often share and confide in each other in a way that others don’t. She shared many memories with me of our lives growing up. I still have many of her things in my house right now and I’m reminded of her daily. I miss her so much. My husband Barron and I spent a lot of time with her and helped her when she was in great need and struggling. She came to our house many times and had dinner and brunch with us. Often she and I would share mutual memories, both happy and challenging, from our childhood and as adults. She loved my husband, Barron, and she used to tell him that he was like the bother she never had. We both feel a hole in our life without her and I hope she knows how much she was loved. I truly do believe she is with Dennis now, out of pain, and someday we will all be with her again ❤️
*brother she never had (not bother! Please excuse typo)
What happened to her I’m so verry sorry for your loss
I am very lucky to have known Robin since high school. Her wit and intelligence always a pleasure to be around. Robin’s thoughtful and curious nature shone through in spades,always up for an adventure whether it be mentally or physically. Much gratitude for the times I spent with her. May she be at peace.

Robin was so kind, I was so fortunate for the times we had together. Two of my most favorite were seeing Blondie and years later reconnecting while she was in MA in Chelmsford.
God bless my friend. Until our paths cross again, peace and love.

I remember when Robin started coming you church. She immediately connected with our church community. Robin attended our Get Connected event and decided to join our church community. Robin had an infectious energy that drew people to her. Robin wasn’t a member a long time but she will be missed by me. I felt connected with her. Her struggles were many. May Robin be at peace now.
With warmest regards,
Donna Anderson membership of the First Universalist Church of Rochester
Robin would understand we cannot attend her service as it’s our grandson’s high school graduation this Saturday morning. Life goes an and I’m sure she’d approve!💕
I am so sorry to hear of your daughter’s passing, which I just learned of here by chance. Sending thoughts and strength on behalf of my mom, your friend Joyce Connelly, who I know would have been there at the service tomorrow to comfort you. Robin sounded like a wonderful person, may she rest in peace.
Thanks Debbie. Your mother was a great friend of us. We had a very good memorial service. Robin was a very nice daughter and we miss her a lot. We picked out graves for her, her husband, and my wife and myself. We will be buried next to each another in White Haven Cemetery in Pittsford.
