Robin Linke DeLucia

Robin Linke DeLucia, 74, born on July 22, 1949, in Derby, Connecticut, passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by her family on May 23rd, 2024 in Hamden, Connecticut. She was the beloved wife of 54 years to John J. DeLucia and the devoted mother to Lisabeth Robin DeLucia Chapelle and Daniel DeLucia, along with daughter-in-law Jennifer DeLucia.

Robin was a proud grandmother to five grandsons: Nicholas Chapelle, Jackson Chapelle, Damien Chapelle, Dylan DeLucia and Dominic DeLucia. She is also survived by her brother Gary C. Linke and his wife Kerry Worsencroft, her sister Dolores Don and her husband Robert Don and her sister Sharyn Farr. She was predeceased by her parents Raymond and Audrey Linke of Hamden, CT.

Robin and John’s life together began with an adventure abroad as they lived in Adana, Turkey for two years during John's service in the USAF, where their daughter Lisabeth was born. Robin dedicated many years of service as a Letter Carrier for the United States Postal Service before retiring.

Robin had a passion for puzzles, crafting, travel, and most importantly, spending time with her family and friends.  She had an impeccable memory for occasions and never missed sending a card for a birthday, anniversary or other momentous event. She was an active member of the Women’s Guild of Huletts Landing, New York, where she and John own a cherished home on Lake George known as “Robin’s Nest.” Robin’s Nest is a haven where friends and family are always welcome to come and create lasting memories.

Robin had a unique ability to make everyone feel special and treasured. Her warmth, kindness, and generosity will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
