Robbie Ann Denning

Robbie Ann Denning of Bloomington, IN, died at home in her favorite chair at age 51, March 9, 2024. Robbie was born in Indianapolis, IN on January 26, 1973. Her mother, Maggie Mae Denning, and her father, Everett Witt Denning, moved with Robbie to Bloomington sometime after she completed the 10th grade. In 1995, Robbie moved into the Kirkwood house, a home for people with disabilities through Stone Belt Arc. After a few years, she eventually moved into her apartment with the supported living program through Stone Belt. Robbie became close friends with one of her roommates, who stayed together over the years and several moves. Early in Robbie’s employment career, she worked at Arby’s and Video World. Then later, she worked for Leather Works through Stone Belt, where she worked to help create belts, notebooks, wallets, and other leather goods. She spent much of her career in Stone Belt’s Manufacturing department, a program partnership with Cook Medical. Here, she helped produce and piece together individual medical parts used in hospitals and doctor’s offices. Over the years, I made many friends, went on many trips, visited many haunted houses, studied the paranormal, and loved many cats. Her love of the paranormal extended to her visits to haunted hotels and many of the most haunted places throughout Indiana, horror conventions, good old-fashioned haunted house tours, and haunted journeys in the horror books she read. She liked getting scared, but she LOVED watching others scream and quake in their boots. She also traveled to several places through Exceptional Getaways, always ready to explore a new place. Her love for laughter, the Colts team, butterflies, getting scared, and having fun was contagious to those who spent time with her. Robbie is survived by her half-sisters, Patsy Louise Jennett, Loretta Ann Eaton, and Rebecca Faye Denning, who were from her father, Everett Witt Denning, and his first wife, Shirley Denning. Robbie is preceded in death by her mother, Maggie Mae, in 1996 and her father, Everett Witt Denning, in 1985. A funeral service will be held at 12:00pm Thursday, March 21, 2024 at the Allen Funeral Home 4155 S. Old St Rd 37 Bloomington. With Chaplain Sarah McKenney officiating. Burial will follow at Mt Gilead Cemetery.
