The heroic, tragic story behind Ashland Park-Robbins school's name is still being taught 89 years later

The Robbins brothers knew their mother came first.They cooked breakfast for her every morning and dinner for her every night. Charles, 11, and Melvin, 9, could hardly remember a time when their mother wasn’t suffering from the paralytic illness that left her almost completely bedridden.But before one February night in 1928, few could have imagined how much the boys were willing to sacrifice for their mother.

Their names appear in headline after headline, chronicling the fire and its aftermath.The fire broke out while the boys were asleep. Early that morning their father, Floral Robbins, left the home at 4207 D St. for his job as a streetcar conductor. Fire investigators at the time believed that a half hour after Floral left, about 5 a.m., an oil stove in the kitchen exploded, igniting the blaze.The brothers woke and rushed to...
