Leif Robinson

Leif James Robinson Jr., 59, of Hopkinton passed away at Milford Regional Hospital on Sept. 8, 2024. Born in Cambridge and raised in Wellesley, he was the son of the late Caroline (Nason) and Leif James Robinson. He was the husband of  23 years to Cheryl (Hopkins) Robinson of Hopkinton.

Leif worked in the automotive industry for over 30 years in Framingham. He was an avid darts player and passionate gardener. He was a fantastic brother-in-law and son-in-law — a truly great man whose presence will be greatly missed.

Besides his wife, Leif is survived by sister Cara Robinson, mother-in-law Shirley Hopkins, sister-in-law Diane Heller, nieces Nicole Ny and Brittany Heller, and nephew Dillon Olmos, as well as several great-nieces and great-nephews.

Private family services are being held and are under the care of the Chesmore Funeral Home of Hopkinton. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (danafarber.org).
