Asa Franklin Robinson III, art glass shop owner

Asa Franklin Robinson III, 66, of Millsboro, formerly of National Park, N.J., passed away Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2021, in the home that he loved.

He was a tenderhearted and loving husband for 41 years to his devoted wife Nancy (Ostrander). His children, Asa F. Robinson IV and  Earl William Robinson, will miss his caring and selfless spirit. Underneath his gruff exterior laid a kind and patient friend and Pops to his grieving grandson Asa F. Robinson V. He was predeceased by his father, Asa Franklin Robinson Jr. and mother Catherine (Nuneville) Robinson of Williamstown, N.J.

Ace was a dedicated Gloucester County Sheriff's Officer in New Jersey for 28 years. During his off hours, he devoted his time to the promotion of New Millennium Wrestling. Upon retirement, he swore off the barber, moved to Millsboro with Nancy, and established Back Bay Art Glass in 2008.

Ace was an honorary father to multiple young men he met through his sons and wrestling. He will be greatly missed by his numerous friends and family, including his brother David (Taj) Robinson and sister Patricia (Ron) Schade of New Jersey. We will all miss his wonderful sense of humor and infectious laugh.

As per his wishes, a celebration of life will be scheduled at a later date.

Arrangements handled by Watson Funeral Home, Millsboro.
