***Employee Spotlight Review***

Beginning in April 2025, we are proud to announce the 20th anniversary of our office manager, Debbie Stolitza. Debbie started working at Robinson-Lytle, Inc. in 2005 and has made the transition with us to Robinson-Lytle-Shoemaker, upon the purchase of the business in 2020 by the Shoemaker Family. Just as in the past, Debbie handles the day-to-day operations of the office. She takes great pride in working hand-in-hand with families to help create personalized, meaningful, and customized services and products that last a lifetime.
Debbie is grateful to help your family ease the burden after the death of your loved one with her compassion, understanding, and experience. Debbie and her husband, Steve, live in Clymer. They have three children and three grandsons.

We're very proud to have Debbie on board with us, continuing to dedicate the same compassion as she has these last 20 years. Thank you Debbie for all you do for those who call upon us to serve them.

History

In 1891, James W. Robinson opened the Robinson Funeral Home in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania where he was joined by his sons, J. Arthur and Harold T. Robinson.

In 1928, J. Arthur opened a second funeral home in Indiana, Pennsylvania. He was later joined by his nephew, R. McKay Lytle, Jr., and then by his great-nephew, Ralph M. Lytle, III. After four generations of the Robinson and Lytle families’ ownership, Richard T. Wolfe, Jr., a life-long resident of Indiana, purchased the funeral home in November, 2000.

He worked under J. Arthur Robinson as a student valet, and under both generations of the Lytle families as a funeral director.

In February 2020, Robinson-Lytle, Inc., was sold to Richard L. Shoemaker of Shoemaker Funeral Home, Inc., Blairsville, Pennsylvania and now will be known as Robinson-Lytle-Shoemaker Funeral Home.
