It is with great sadness that we report that Jeffrey Griffin Robinson, Executive Director of Environmental Services and Technology passed away on Sunday, November 19, 2023, surrounded by his family. Jeffrey Griffin Robinson was born July 20, 1960 in Burlington, Iowa, the son of Griffin John and Pamela (Sharp) Robinson.
He proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy as a submariner. On August 17, 1985, he married the love of his life, Michelle Stozek, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Professionally, Jeff began his career at Smith Engineering, one of the pioneering manufacturers of air pollution control equipment. However, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to make a positive impact, he founded Environmental Services & Technologies in 1993. His work was not just a job; it was a passion. Jeff believed in being proactive rather than reactive, and his dedication to his clients was unparalleled.
Jeff will be remembered as honorable, compassionate, authentic, loyal and moody. He touched the lives of those he encountered, interacting effortlessly with others and creating lasting connections.
He found joy in exploring the world, with a particular love for the Cayman Islands, where he indulged his passion for scuba diving. Above all else, however, family was of the utmost importance in Jeff’s life. He was the “family fortress,” a pillar of strength and the glue that bound the family together. His devotion to his grandchildren, affectionately known as “his rats,” was evident in the joy and laughter they shared.
