ROBINSON: Craig Steven of RR 3 Kippen
Posted By Haskett Funeral Homes On February 25, 2026 @ 6:15 PM In Exeter,Obituary | 154 Comments

Passed away suddenly at his residence on Monday, February 23, 2026, in his 32nd year. Dear son of Everett Robinson (Alison Connolly) and the late Sandra (Hulley) (2014). Loving husband of Melissa (Whaling). Proud father of Oliver, Sullivan, and Penelope. Cherished brother and brother-in-law of Becky Hoogenes (Greg), Nic Robinson (Robyn), Meagan Ingram (Tanner), and John Davidson. Fun Uncle of Aven, Alyse, Layna; Cole, Isla, Grace; Gibson, Cooper; and Zoey. Predeceased by his grandparents Vi and Ted Robinson and Robert and Margaret Hulley. Fondly remembered by many aunts, uncles, cousins, close friends, and many customers. Craig will be missed by his beloved dogs: Rosco, Zoey, Gunner, and Scout.
Craig was the proud owner of Blossom Valley Electric Inc, and he could be described as a man who truly loved what he did. He will be greatly missed by his incredible work family Dylan, Bennett and Caleb. When he wasn’t working or spending time with his family, he could be found hunting, fishing, and tending to his animals.
Craig was a strong advocate for mental health awareness and believed in breaking the stigma surrounding it by encouraging openness, understanding and an ear for those who needed it.
A celebration of life will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 456 Main Street South, EXETER on Tuesday, March 3rd from 2 – 5 PM, with words of remembrance at 3 PM. In honour of Craig, please don your favourite crocs and dress casually.
In lieu of flowers, donations to a Trust Fund for Craig’s children (cheques payable to Meagan Ingram, cash, or e-transfer to [email protected] ) would be appreciated by the family.

We could always count on Craig to lend a hand when needed, even ridding my water garden of snakes when he was just 9 yrs old, when no one else in our family could or would.
You will be missed by so many. Rest easy Craiger.
Dear Lord, please keep this family safe in your loving arms!
My deepest condolences to each and all of his beautiful family.

Sending our deepest sympathy. Remember the good times
To Craig’s family and friends,
Craig was so much more than an employer to my son, Bennett Smith. He was a mentor and a steady presence in his life. He took the time to teach Bennett not only the trade of electrical work, but also important life lessons that will stay with him forever.
Craig believed in Bennett, encouraged him, and always treated him with kindness and respect. There was always room for laughter along the way. Bennett looked up to Craig as a friend, a big brother, and even a father figure.
He will truly miss learning beside Craig each day, but even more, he will miss the guidance and support that meant so much to him.
Our hearts go out to Craig’s family and friends during this very difficult time.
My thoughts and condolences are with all of Craig’s family. Thinking of all of you at this sad time.
Meagan and family, sorry to hear of your loss. You are in my thoughts at this difficult time.

Footprints that begin to fade as the Lord offers you his hand

The light that was once your life is now forever gone
The pain and grief is over your time on Earth is done
I hope you have found your peace you are safely home my son
