Joseph Robles, Sr. Rides into the Forever Sunset

Joseph Robles, Sr. passed away on August 19, 2025

Joseph Robles, Sr. was many things in his lifetime.  As an entrepreneur, he founded Knights Collision in 1948. As a family man, he was father to: Joseph Keith, Linda, David, Adam, and Debbie, who passed away before him.  Joseph Robles, Jr. is the board chair of St. Nicks Alliance. 

He was also a biker.  The prayer card given at his funeral contained “A Biker’s Prayer: May the sun rise in front of me, the rain fall behind me, the wind follow men.  May the angels guard my travels for they know what is ahead of me. Keep me safe through the rolling hills and swirling turn. Let the eagle guide me to the mountain tops. Let the moon’s light guide me through the night. Lord, thank you for letting me be a biker.”
