Due to the passing of Mrs. Nancy Bennett, the Memorial Service for George Ulmer Bennett will be scheduled at a later date when the family can honor both George and Nancy together.

Please check back to our website for the rescheduled service time.

George Ulmer Bennett of Clemson, South Carolina, passed away peacefully on December 13, 2025, at the age of 92.

Born in Columbia, George graduated from Clemson College in 1955, where he served as head cheerleader of the all-male team his senior year and was deeply involved in campus life.

While at Clemson, George and his father donated a small cannon that is fired after each touchdown, a tradition that remains a cherished part of Clemson football today.

After serving two years in the United States Army at Fort Knox, George began his professional career with Esso, which eventually led him back home to Clemson.

He served as Executive Director of IPTAY, Clemson's athletic fundraising organization, and later worked at Vanderbilt University and Furman University before returning to Clemson and IPTAY, where he remained until his retirement in 2004.

But retirement never slowed George down. He continued serving as an ambassador for the Clemson Athletic Department, leading campus tours and sharing his deep love for the university.

He was known for originating the practice of carrying $2 bills to away football games and launching the Welcome Back Festival and Tiger Cub Club.

George never met a stranger and delighted in building relationships. He was an active member of First Baptist Church of Clemson and devoted to his faith, his family, and his community.

He is survived by his children Jeffrey and Bonnie, seven grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.

Although George will be deeply missed by so many, it is with great joy that his family knows he is in heaven with Nancy, wearing orange and teaching everyone to say, "Go Tigers."

The family encourages anyone to wear their Clemson colors in honor of George's love for Clemson.

Five generations. 150 years. One shared commitment.

Chris and Anna Robinson looking through decades of Robinson Funeral Homes history. Every photo, every story, every family we've had the honor of serving has shaped who we are today.

This isn't just our family's legacy. It's the trust our community has placed in us, year after year, generation after generation. It's the families who've allowed us to walk alongside them during life's most difficult moments.

From father to daughter, the lesson remains the same: showing up matters. Listening matters. Honoring every life with dignity and compassion matters.

We're grateful to continue serving the Upst with the same care that has guided us for over a century. Call us anytime at 864-531-7719.

There are moments that remind us why we serve this community.

This season, our team sponsored a family through Pickens County School District at Liberty Elementary.

Together, our staff fulfilled their complete Christmas wishlist, and when we delivered those gifts, we saw something beautiful: the power of a community that takes care of its own.

This is what it means to show up for one another. Not just in loss, but in life. Not just when called upon, but when the opportunity arises to make a difference.

Pictured here are Steve Crowe, Lisa Rochester, and Anna Robinson.

We're honored to have received the National Funeral Directors Association Pursuit of Excellence Award in Chicago, alongside our own Nathan Miller and Greg Rice.

This award is presented annually to an elite group of funeral homes that demonstrate a commitment to the highest ethical and professional standards while providing outstanding service to families and communities.

This recognition reflects the care, dedication, and heart our entire team brings to serving families every single day.

It's a privilege to do this work, and we're deeply grateful to be trusted by the families and community we serve.

Thank you for allowing us to walk alongside you during life's most important moments.

Your family shouldn't have to make dozens of difficult decisions while their heart is breaking.

Pre-planning lifts that weight. It means your loved ones can focus on being together, sharing stories, and holding each other close instead of navigating choices they've never had to make before.

When you plan ahead, you give them clarity in a moment that often feels impossibly unclear. They won't wonder what you would have wanted. They'll know. And that knowledge becomes a quiet source of comfort when comfort feels hard to find.

We walk alongside families through this process with care and without pressure. Every choice you make now is a gift of peace for the people you love most.

Call us anytime at 864-531-7719 to learn more about pre-planning.

While Chris Robinson’s national service is extensive, his foundation in funeral service has always been right here at home. His roots began with a summer job digging graves by hand.

After earning a master’s degree in international business and beginning a career in banking, he made a pivotal choice.

With his father growing the family’s funeral business, Chris left the banking industry to return to his roots, becoming a licensed funeral director to work alongside his father and carry on the family legacy.

This deep understanding of the work, from the ground up, is the bedrock of his leadership. It ensures that every decision is guided by the values of family, community, and compassionate care.

The national perspective he gained only strengthens the service you receive here at home.

During your most vulnerable times, you are never alone. Call us any time at 864-531-7719.

"Robinson Funeral Home helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life with compassion, kindness, and professionalism.

They guided me through the entire process—from planning to the service, and helping with the design of the grave marker after the funeral. Every question was answered right away. First-class care from beginning to end."

When families trust us during life's most difficult moments, it becomes a sacred responsibility.
