He survives as well as their children; Lisa Robinson of Colorado Springs, CO, Lynnette Robinson of Columbia, MO, Steve (Shari Clapp) of Madison, WI, David (Lesley) Robinson of Bourbonnais, IL and LuAnn (Mark) Edmundson of LeRoy, IL. Also surviving her are four grandchildren: Thomas and Mark Robinson and Jack and Sam Edmundson. She was preceded in death by her parents and a son in infancy.

Pris graduated from Wethersfield High School in 1952 and then attended Augustana College. She was a full-time mother and homemaker and worked at Kewanee Public Hospital in the medical records office. She was a lifetime member of Zion Lutheran Church volunteering in many capacities including as assistant organist and pianist for many years, singing in the church choir, holding several positions on the church council and the Faith Circle. Her participation in the community choir brought her much happiness. Pris spent countless hours supporting others through random acts of kindness. Above all, her family, music, and faith were the most important aspects of her life.
