Robin T. St.Hilaire
“Saint” • “Yogi”
April 30, 1957 – June 3, 2025
Robin T. St.Hilaire, affectionately known as “Saint” and “Yogi,” 68, of Gardner, MA, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, after a long and courageous health battle. He was surrounded by his loving family.
Born in Fitchburg, MA, on April 30, 1957, Robin was the son of the late James and Yvonne St.Hilaire. He grew up in Townsend, MA, and graduated from North Middlesex High School. He went on to study at the Motorcycle Institute in Daytona, FL, and later trained at the Andover Tractor Trailer School, which led to his career as a truck driver. Even after health issues prevented him from driving, Robin remained dedicated to supporting his family through buying and selling a wide array of items—if it had wheels or an engine, Robin could fix it, sell it, or make it run better.
He had a passion for quirky vehicles, especially three-wheelers and boats, and loved nothing more than spending time fishing and camping with his family at Cape Cod. Known for his sharp wit and infectious laughter, Robin had a gift for making everyone around him smile. His generous spirit, humor, and boundless love for family and friends will never be forgotten.
Robin is survived by his devoted wife of 39 years, Linda St.Hilaire, and their three sons:
Jonathan St.Hilaire and his wife Melissa; granddaughter Victoria and her fiancé Eric; granddaughter Natalie; grandson Blake; great-granddaughter Sophia; and great-grandson Colton.
Michael St.Hilaire and his wife Kristin; grandsons Kelsen, Evan, and Cameron.
Benjamin St.Hilaire and his wife Brittany; grandsons Ben Jr., Bradley, and Bryce; and granddaughter Brynlee.
He was predeceased by his parents and brothers David, Brian, and Thomas St.Hilaire. He leaves behind his brothers Richard and Laurent St.Hilaire; sisters Denise Clark, Jeanne Thomas, and Andree Gendron; as well as many beloved nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, June 29th 1pm-4pm at the Polish American Citizens Club (P.A.C.C.), located at 171 Kendall Pond Rd W, Gardner, MA. Family and friends are warmly invited to join in remembering Robin’s life and legacy.
In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes stories, memories, and laughter in his honor—just the way Robin would’ve wanted.
