KRISTA ROBUCK Click here to view Krista's Video Tribute IDAHO FALLS, ID -- Krista Lee Robuck went to receive her heavenly rewards on March 2, 2010 at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. Krista was born on April 14, 1959 in Boise Idaho, the eldest daughter of Gary and Sheila (Briggs) Hubsmith. She resided in Burley, Idaho most of her youth until she graduated from high school in 1977. She then moved to Ketchum, Idaho where she explored the outdoors, skied, and soon met the love of her life Scott Robuck. Krista and Scott left Ketchum together in 1979 to go to college at the University of Idaho where she majored in Communications. While in Moscow she met many people who also became her life long friends. She and Scott returned to the Sun Valley area in 1980 where she and Scott were married on May 24, 1980. In 1981 they moved to Boise, Idaho to begin work and to start a family. Their son, Ryan, was born soon after in Boise on May 26, 1984. She later gave birth to their daughter Kara on September 30, 1988, also in Boise. Her two children and her husband were the light of her life, and she was a devoted mother and wife who always made sure her family’s needs were always fulfilled and came first before her own needs. Krista was the most selfless person in this regard. In 1990, Krista and her family moved to Idaho Falls where they continued to live until her passing. Here, she enjoyed many years of enjoying and supporting her children in their sporting activities, especially baseball, softball, and wrestling, where she logged many miles traveling to nearly every gym or ballpark in the state cheering them on. She showed her love and support by always having a cold drink and a snack for them (and often the rest of the team as well), and occasionally telling a referee that they had made a bad call. This is also a place where she made many more lasting friendships. That was Krista; always speaking her peace of mind about what mattered most to her. This quality also made her very special to all who knew her. In addition to her love for raising her family she immensely enjoyed the outdoors, Boise State football, Bunko, traveling, concerts, camping, boating, fishing, riding ATV’s in the mountains, watching the eagles soar above the South Fork, playing cards with her family and friends, and most of all laughing out loud. She loved to have fun. She was happiest when hosting family and friends over the holidays, where she loved to cook a never-ending supply of comfort food and make sure everyone had all they could eat. She looked forward to putting a smile on your face by picking out a special gift or cooking your favorite meal. There was always room at the dinner table for anyone who cared to join her. She was a wonderful mother not only to her children but also a loving second mother to many of her children’s friends, and she always enjoyed helping others who were less fortunate than her or who had unfulfilled needs. Her kindness and generosity, wonderful smile, and good nature became something that everyone who knew her came to know. She will always have a special place in the hearts of all who knew her and loved her and she will be greatly missed; may she rest in peace. She was preceded in death by her grandparents Ray and Delta Briggs and Seymour and Zina Hubsmith, and her father in law, Richard Robuck. She is survived by her husband Scott Robuck of Idaho Falls, her children Ryan and Kara Robuck of Boise, her mother Sheila Hubsmith of Burley, her father Gary Hubsmith of Burley, her sister Kamala Hoyer of Boise, her brother Wade Hubsmith (Lisa) of Boise, brother in law Jeff Robuck of Austin, TX, mother in law Jan Robuck of Murrieta, CA, niece Ashley Williams of Seattle, WA, her niece Maggy Hubsmith of Boise, as well as very many special friends. Services will be held at 2 p.m. Friday, March 12, 2010, at Wood Funeral Home, 273 N. Ridge Avenue. Burial Services will be held at 12 Noon Saturday in Richfield Cemetery in Richfield, Idaho. In lieu of flowers the family requests memorial contributions be sent to the Pulmonary Hypertension Association, 801 Roeder Road, Suite 400, Silver Spring, MD 20910 or make a memorial gift online at www.PHAssociation.org . ---------------------------------------------------- Condolences received online: Pat Aldrich Woolf patricia@willowtreedental.com My deepest sympathy is with you and all your families.

Love, Larry and Bonnie Clayton Michael Thompson michael.d.thompson@lmco.com Scott (and family) - Although I only met you and Krista once, you guys made a lasting impression on me and I'm sorry circumstances didn't allow us to get together again. One of the things I read about Krista was the part about laughing out loud, enjoying life, and being heavily committed to her family - from the short time we had together, I could tell that was true about Krista. Please know that my family's thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. Mike Thompson and Family Kim & Tony Arehart and Family Scott, Ryan and Kara. Our family is very saddened by the loss of Krista. She was an incredible person that will be missed by all. Please accept our deepest condolences.
