The entertainment community is mourning the loss of music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, after authorities discovered the couple deceased in their Encino home earlier this week.
Police were conducting a welfare check when they arrived at the residence and noticed signs of distress near the entrance. After attempts to make contact went unanswered, officers entered the home and found both individuals deceased. Early findings suggest gunshot wounds, though the Los Angeles Police Department emphasized that the investigation is ongoing and no conclusions should be drawn until the full evidence is reviewed.
Neighbors and colleagues reacted with disbelief, describing the couple as warm, generous, and deeply rooted in the creative community. Many spoke of their kindness, their steady presence behind the scenes, and their ability to elevate artists and projects without seeking recognition for themselves.
Robin Kaye, celebrated for her work on American Star and many other productions, spent decades shaping musical direction in film and television. Those who worked with her describe a rare blend of artistry and humility — someone who listened deeply, lifted others quietly, and offered stability in an industry often driven by urgency.
Her husband, Thomas Deluca, is remembered by friends as equally supportive and steady, someone who matched Robin’s sincerity and shared her commitment to nurturing meaningful creative work.
Tributes have poured in across social media and private circles as colleagues reflect on the couple’s influence and the relationships they built over the years. Many note that alongside professional accomplishments, Robin and Thomas stood out for the way they treated people — with patience, respect, and authenticity.
As investigators continue their work, community members are urging patience and compassion for the family. The loss has left a profound void in the music world and among those who knew the couple personally, who now remember them not only for their contributions, but for the kindness and quiet integrity they carried into every room.
